I was really missing fish back in Agra and tried to make the most of my vacation by making varieties of seafood dishes. One such dish was a simple fish curry using onions and tomatoes. The first time I was introduced to this preparation was by a good friend Mrs Gordon. I was indeed surprised to see that fish could be prepared in similar way as chicken masala. The only difference was tamarind pulp is added for the sourness. (more…)

Seafood…That was one of the must have’s in our list before heading home. Back in Agra, the chances of getting fresh fish of our choice was next to none. So, the trip to Kerala was double whammy. We get to meet our near and dear ones and eat seafood to our heart’s content. Another aspect for me was the fact that I get to prepare and put up some Fish recipes for my readers. 
The moment I decided to cook, I knew what I wanted. Mangalore Fish. A recipe that has moved into “My favourites” list ever since I tried it the first time some years back. (more…)

Fish Pulao is a very simple preparation. I had taken down this recipe from a cookery show some years back. Use any fresh firm-fleshed fish like pomfret, seer fish etc to prepare this Pulao. Frozen fish can also be used but won’t be as tasty.

One can find a lot of varieties of kabab, fish kabab being one of them. I am sure that all the seafood lovers like me, would love to get their hands on a plate of hot kababs. The fish kababs are pretty easy to make once they are deboned. Deboning fish for kababs is simple. All you have to do is dump them in a pot of salted boiling water and cook till they are done. Drain and start deboning..Easy peasy right?? You can reserve the stock for any recipe that calls for fish stock.

One can find a lot of varieties of fried fish as we move from one country to another. The fish fry I grew up eating was very simple to make. Take any fish of your choice. Marinate them in a chilli-turmeric-salt mixture and fry them up. As simple as that.. This is a typical Kerala style preparation. However, one can find a lot of variations in the marination. Let me save the varietions for another time. Today I am sharing the basic Simple Fried Fish. (more…)

Meen Pattichathu/Vattichathu is a spicy fish curry, a traditional Syrian Christian dish. This is fiery red curry which is hot as well as tangy. The trick involved in this dish is using Kashmiri red chilli powder, which is mild in heat but gives a bright red colour. A key ingredient of this dish is Gambooge, a tamarind variety, known as Kudampuli in Malayalam, which gives the tangy twist to it. Ideally, this curry should be cooked in a claypot for best results.
