When I first saw Masala Fish Fry recipe from Jay’s Space, I was too tempted to try it out soon and bookmarked long ago. Last sunday I got the opportunity to try it and it was so good. Masala Fish Fry came out simply superb. I prepared this along with the Kerala Style Prawn Roast and Meen Kuzhambu which is the next post. I used King Fish here, but any kind of fleshy fish should work well for this fish fry.
