ABOUT Andhra Fish Curry RECIPE

Fish is loaded with proteins, nutrients and omega 3 fatty acids. So it advised fish in our daily diet if possible. So here is a delicious and an authentic Andhra recipe of fish cooked in a spicy and a tangy gravy. Red chili powder and tamarind juice is the base of the gravy. It is traditionally prepared very spicy, but the red chili powder can be adjusted according to individual taste. I have used Kashmiri red chili powder. It is best relished with plain steamed rice.
