Fish Coconut Fry

Fish Coconut Fry

This is a simple and easy fish fry recipe which you can do with any fish fillet.If you are tried of the usual fish fry try adding in fried onions and roasted coconut. It adds a unique flavor and taste which is pleasing to the palette. You can try different versions like adding coconut paste to the marinade and fry/bake the fish. Pairs with plain rice or fried rice.

Ingredients

Fish fillet- 3
( I used tilapia fillet)

1) To marinate the fish
Turmeric powder- 1/3 tsp
Pepper powder- 1/3 tsp
Chilly powder- 1 tsp
Ginger garlic paste- 1 1/2 tsp
Lemon juice- 1 tsp
Salt to taste
Coconut oil for frying

Onion sliced- 1 medium
Green chilly -1 
sliced ginger- 1 tsp
Coconut shredded- 3 tsp
Fennel powder- 1/2 tsp
Coriander leaves- a little

Clean and cut fish into small pieces. Mix all ingredients listed under to marinate the fish into a paste and apply over the fish pieces and set aside for ten minutes. Fry the fish till it is done and drain the excess oil and keep aside. In the pan add two tsps of oil(use the same oil used to fry fish drain off the excess oil) add onions, sliced ginger and green chilly and saute till changes color. Add coconut and continue to fry till onions and coconut turns golden brown. Add fennel powder, a pinch of chilly powder and coriander leaves. Add the fried fish and gently toss till all the fish is coated with the masala. Serve with rice.

Try this..
Hope you will all enjoy

Uzhunnu Vada/Urad Dal Vada

Uzhunnu Vada/Urad Dal Vada Uzhunnu vada or medu vada is a very common snack in south India and is a perfect accompaniment with a cup of hot piping tea.I like it as a snack but again cannot resist when it is served with idli,sambar and chutney as breakfast. One might wonder where does all the aroma come from? The  plain deep fried lentils is by itself flavorful because I make them often for  vada curry. But in uzhunnu vada the addition of pearl onions,ginger and curry leaves imparts a wonderful aroma that is irresistible.This is something I really missed when I came here to the US until I started making my home made version. Try this you will surely love it. Ingredients Urad Dal/Black lentil skinless- 1 cup Rice flour- 2 tsp Pearl Onions- 4-5 Ginger finely chopped- 1 inch thick Curry leaves finely chopped- 1 spring Green chilly  finely chopped- 3 Whole black pepper- 5-6 salt to taste Oil- 2 cup to fry Wash and soak urad dal and rice for about 4-5 hours. Drain

Kerala Beef Vindaloo- Anglo-Indian Recipe

Authentic Goan Vindaloo is made with pork, but you can also use beef or mutton. Vindaloo may sound complicated, but it is an easy recipe. You can make a restaurant-style curry right in your kitchen. Today I am sharing two ways to cook this recipe. The  traditional slow-cooked stove top recipe  and  an Instant pot recipe . Recently I have been making this curry in Instant pot and it comes out perfect each time. Beef Vindaloo is a quintessential dish for Christmas feasts in Kerala. It is popular among Christians and the Anglo-I
