WOW! The song singer and the music is great!. just listening to it and reading your recipe make me think I am enjoying this fantastic dish in a top notch revolving restaurant, looking out at the panoramic city view and in the background this fantastic piece of music is playing.
Just perfect

Hey,
i am a second generation Malayali, based in Srilanka[ Colombo]
i usualy go through the web to down load a kerala recipe since kerala food is not available in any Resturant here i have tried two of your recipies and it turn out to be very tasty
try to give some more famous kerala fish and meat pickles so i can bottle it and enjoy it i remember my father [a typical kainakery [kuttanadu] man] used to fondly remember his mothers fish pickles when i was a small boy

thanks a lot for this reciepe.

i have tried this once with a particular fish here.cant remeber what fish. but while i fried it they stated to break away. secondly, as ur friend said about the putting chilli powder the second time, it does work out. but it is preffered to be put as the last ingredient in the process of doing this coz, otherwise it turns black. thats what happened with me. and i truly agree the curry leaves gives and yummy taste and a gr8 aroma.

tank you once again..its just motivated me to try again

Hi Shilpa,
I tried out this recipe today…i turned out very well..
However,when i fried the prawns together, it oozed out lot of water…what did u do with excess water….i didnt feel like discarding it so i retained it….may be i cant preserve it for a long time….
Thanks for posting a nice recipe,
Regards,
Namrata

Shilpa:Namrata, did you use frozen prawns? If you feel they have too much water, squeeze them to remove excess water before adding to the dish. I just let it cook on high flame for couple of mins till all the water evaporated.
