Kerala-style dry fry where fish is cooked down until all the moisture evaporates and what remains is intensely flavoured, slightly caramelised, and impossibly moreish. Best with parotta or plain rice.

4 piece Seer Fish (Neimeen — cut into thin rounds
1 tsp Pepper (Coarsely ground
1 tsp Chilli powder
11/2 tbsp Ginger (chopped
1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
Curry leaves, to taste
1/2 tsp Fenugreek powder ( podi (Uluva)
1 cup Coconut oil
Salt, to taste

Preparation

Step 1
How to apply masala:Wash and clean the fish pieces, apply yogurt and keep it for half an hour to remove any fish odor.
Step 2
Gather all the required ingredients and set aside.
Step 3
Apply all the ingredients to the washed pieces and cover it for at least 2 hours.
Step 4
Fry in coconut oil. Save a coarse powder from this oil on top of the fish and serve. Or the same pieces can be grilled in the oven.Footnote: - Any fish including black fish can be fried with this masala. If the masala is kept in the freezer, it can be defrosted and fried as needed.

Tip

A heavy-bottomed pan or cast iron skillet gives you the best results for a proper Kerala fry. Thin pans burn the spices before the meat dries.
