SOLE FISH CURRY / KERALA FISH CURRY
Kerala cuisine ( a state in India) offers a multitude of both vegetarian and nonvegetarian dishes prepared using fish, meat, and poultry. Fish is included in their daily meals as it is available in plenty and is healthy too
Fish coconut curry is a traditional kerala fish curry which is made in earthen pots those days. It makes the dish tastier than any.
