Fish Curry Recipe

Today I am going to make a Trivandrum style fish curry. This is an easy to follow recipe. Fish is always tasty, whatever types we are making. In Kerala we are using more spicy to enjoy the meal. Usually pepper and fish are good combination. But in this I didn’t use pepper,still it is tasty. This is a special style. Enjoy.
