Now coming back to today’s recipe…..Fish is one of the staple food in kerala and they like to fry their fish a lot…This recipe is one of the typical keralan dish…I used coconut oil to fry the fish like the keralan do..but you can use any oil as you like.. Hope you all will give this a try and let me know what you think..

Good to see your authentic recipes out here..Nice fish fry..But being from Kerala, just thought would tell you it's not Keralan but known as Keralite or Malayalee.. 🙂

My masala comes apart while frying. how to avoid this?
@Anonymous Fry it on low flame with very little oil, so your masala will not come out

I have tried this recipe today. It came out very well. Thanks Aarthi
You dont need coriander powder to fry in kerala style. Just marinate in using turmeric and salt. Then use just chilly and fish masala if needeed. Thats all. Tats how we make it in kera to fry a fish.
Great article. I read this article properly. This is one of the best posts. Thanks sharing this article

Anyone where to get this "Seer Fish" in the US? It's also called "Vanjeeram", aka "Naimeen", "Surmai". aka Scomberomorus guttatus.
I was told that the US has banned this for import (need verification) due to high mercury content.
The MExico gulf fish called "King Fish" is not the seer fish..although its DNA is shared… YEs People..The King Fish you get in the US is not Seer Fish..
Used one perch and two whiting fillets. Didn’t turn out all too good. Think it was the white pepper; should’ve been black.Or was it the vegetable oil, and not coconut??
Also its probably best to use Spanish mackerel, expensive over here. Perch is fresh water fish, not suitable??. The whiting was actually not that bad. Will try again with mackerel another day.
Thanks for the method statement.
