just too add a little extra. whil shallow frying cover the fish with bananna leaves & try the taste it’s really awesome.

I loves fishes…

why do we add tamarind in this? can it be prepared without tamrind?

Shilpa: Yes, you can ignore tamarind, if you don’t want to add it.

You’ll find all types of prawns and pomfrets in a oriental grocery market called Ranch 99, it’s in the Freemont area and there’s also one in Berkeley.

Thanks Shilpa,
You are right , it was shallow fried as it had that nice steam cooked texture and no typical restauranty oily look…..
( To give credit to the Virar lady… she used to serve typical home made dishes…I understand she was a qualified chef…the business was her hobby.)

..do you think I will get a similar fish in UK /Ireland.

..thanks again.

Ashish, I think the recipe you are looking for is fish fry with red masala. You can make it with Surmai (king fish) also. Usually in restaurants they deep fry it, but I prefer the shallow fried version. Have a look and let me know if this is the recipe you were looking for.

Dear friend,
I totally agree with your response to the people who copy from the genuine blogs and publish on thier own without recognising the original author.
I am an avid follower of your website as well few others.(..thecookscottage..is my other favourite).

After reading this Fish fry recipe, i would request a recipe I am lookingfor since long time.
This is a Konkani/ Malwani dish…it is a ‘Surmai’ fried fish ,very delicate mild flavoured dish…I used to enjoy in a very small retaurant in Virar(east)…I think it was called Sai-Vihar or something like that.
The lady used to serve this with Veg-biryani and Sol-kadi to go with it.
If by any chance you know the recipe I am looking for please post it on your Blog or e-mail me .
Thanking you in advance …best regds…Ashish
