Fish panna upkari is a traditional fish curry from the Konkani cuisine and it is a much loved curry from the fish eaters of GSB community. This is a spicy, tangy curry prepared by using lot of dry red chillies, tamarind , coconut oil and other aromatic ingredients. This recipe is passed down from generation to generation and I am also following the same recipe from quite a lot of time.
