Mackerel Uddamethi or Bangdyachi Uddamethi or Bangda uddamethi is a delicious Goan fish recipe made with mackerel fish and has a taste of urad dal (split black gram lentil) and fenugreek seeds (methi seeds).

Ever since my childhood I loved this Mackerel Uddamethi or Bangda Uddamethi. It tastes just delicious and leaves one licking their fingers.

Bangdyachi Uddamethi

Mackerel uddamethi is one of the top 10 fish curry recipe in Goa. You might not get it in any restaurant. This is one of the GSB fish recipes. Mackerel recipes turn yummy and this fish can be found easily in the market.

Goan fish curries taste delicious and are a must try. Mackerel uddamethi is another type of Goan fish curry. It tastes delicious due to the ingredients like urad dal and fenugreek seeds. These ingredients are not added to other types of fish curries made in Goa.
