Chepa Pulusu is a tangy fish gravy famous in Andhra Pradesh. (Chepa – Fish, Pulusu – Tangy Tamarind gravy) This preparation is similar to our Tamilian Meen Kuzhambu but very spicy made with plain red chilli powder which gives that nice red colour to curry.

Mixed greens sauteid with chicken and cooked in simmering coconut milk. Stew is a thin gravy thicker than soup and thiner than sauce made with combination of veggies and stock. Here is an interesting combo of Spinach, Chard and chicken simmered in mild sweet coconut milk. Best when served with flakky parottas, plain bread, parathas etc and not a bad idea to try with plain rice too.

We, in our family circle have this flair for combining vegetables with non-veggies and get to taste something unusual atleast once a week. In one way, it was good, as we consumed the dish just for the smell and taste without even caring about the veggie. Here's one such interesting combination… Kovakkai cooked with shrimp and loads of freshly ground black pepper. (Kovakkai ~ Ivy gourd, Milagu ~ Black pepper, Eral ~ Prawns/Shrimp)
Ivy Gourd ~ English
Kovakkai ~ Tamil
Kundru ~ Hindi

Coastal Maharashtra (Konkan) is well known for fish dishes and famous beaches. Most of the dishes from this region include coconut and made in Indo-Europian(Portugese) style. This is one such Goan influenced fish curry.
Kokum, a dry fruit with same sourcing qualities of tamarind is mainly used in most fish curry preparations. Unfortunately couldn't find this so I have used regular tamarind pulp.

Fish puttu (hash) is a popular dish from Kerala mostly made with Shark and King fish along with scrambled eggs. Its also equally popular in Tamil Nadu too, but made only with sharks. In US, its quite hard to get Shark, so had to adapt with whats available. To my surprise, it turned out great with few varieties like Cod, Tilapia, Tuna and King fish. . . . → Read More: Fish Puttu
