The more you cook prawns the more rubbery they become. When they turn from transparent to white, they are cooked.</em> hey shilpa…

hi.. shilpa,

Great to see U guys sharing your recipes and views.

Basically I am not konkani but I love konkani food and always wanted to learn it.
But my major drawback is I have no idea about fish except pomflit(pardon my spelling mistake)!!and another thing is I am not able to identify fish with English names in US(I am in san diego CA).

so my request is could u please tell me abt fish that we use in konkano recipes in english with marathi names.I will really appreciate it.
waiting for your reply,
thanks.

These stores usually have fresh sea food. I don't have much idea about shops in San Jose. Kanchan, Look for some Chinese store there. These stores usually have fresh sea food.
