Goan Fish Curry

I have so many recipes to be tried out in my “to-do” list. One such recipe was the Goan Fish Curry. So, this time when I bought fish, I didn’t have to rack my brain to decide which recipe to follow. As usual, I looked into Goan Food Recipes blog, my go-to space for any Goan recipes 🙂 On reading through, I realised that the preparation is pretty much the same to Kerala Style Meen Maanga Thenga Arachu Vachathu. The only difference is that no curry leaves is used in the Goan preparation.
Mango is used as the souring agent in this recipe. However, one may use tamarind instead, like I did. Ideally this curry is to rest for a couple of hours, so that the fish absorbs all the flavours. If you plan to keep the curry for longer, store in refrigerator and heat just before serving.
