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.
