Mouth watering recipe
Tasty, I tried it and it was great. But I made it without using oil. Still it was nice and i added a small Brinjal. And I wish to tell you one thing that I now can cook a little bit only because of you, I learned rasam, nethili fish curry & peera, dhal curry, cauliflower kootu from you. I tried all of these for the first time with OK comments from my family. Because I never had cooked anything before… Aarthi love you have much. U r a good teacher…

I regularly follow all your posts..it is really good and easy to follow with step wise pictorial demonstration which is indeed kind of very helpful. Thank you for the great dishes. I have a doubt can the same procedure be followed for every other fish or is it only for anchovies?…
