    Madurai Vela Meen Kuzhambu Recipe with step wise pictures.

    Super spicy curry made with fish taste really good with rice. This is a madurai speciality and it don't need any coconut.

    I have shared so many variation of fish curry in this blog, this is another one from madurai district. It is made using velameen and the recipe is very simple. The flavour and taste for this comes from gingelly oil and the small onions which we are using.
