Kerala Fish Curry With Coconut Milk is a curry from the Malabar coast. I cook Malabari curry on weekends just like Goan curry. My hubby being a fish lover, gets home a variety of fish. There was a seafood festival at More Megastore and hubby got a recipe book when he bought fish. So I thought of trying a recipe from that book just for a change. I selected another curry instead of the Goan Fish Curry. Plus point was that I had kodampuli at home. I had been to a cooking event at Pink Poppadom and there I learnt about kodampuli. Since then I wanted to use this in the food that I cook at home.
Kerala Fish Curry is made with Coconut Milk and seer fish.
Fish in coconut milk is a delicious curry. I have used seer fish to prepare this delicious Malabari curry. Serve it with Kerala boiled rice or steamed rice. Let us see the steps to prepare Malabar fish curry with coconut. To know more about Kerala, read here.
