The Heart of Kerala Fish Curry

Kerala Fish Curry

Kerala Fish Curry, or Meen Curry, is a staple dish in Kerala households. Known for its vibrant color and tangy flavor, this curry is crafted using tamarind or kokum, which gives it a distinctive taste. The curry is enriched with coconut milk, fresh fish, and a blend of aromatic spices, creating a perfect harmony of flavors that is both comforting and invigorating.

At Thambi's Kitchen, we prioritize quality and authenticity. Our Kerala Fish Curry is made with:

  • Fresh Fish: Sourced sustainably to ensure premium quality and taste.
  • Coconut Milk: Adds a creamy texture and subtle sweetness to the curry.
  • Tamarind/Kokum: Provides the signature tangy flavor.
  • Spices: A unique blend of turmeric, red chili powder, coriander, fenugreek, and black pepper.
  • Curry Leaves: Infuses the dish with an earthy and aromatic flavor.

Traditional Cooking Method

Kerala Sea Food

Our chefs at Thambi's Kitchen adhere to a traditional recipe passed down through generations. The process begins with marinating the fish in turmeric and salt. The curry base is then prepared by sautéing onions, green chilies, ginger, and garlic until golden brown. A blend of spices is added, followed by coconut milk and tamarind water. The marinated fish is simmered in this rich, aromatic gravy until perfectly cooked, resulting in a dish that is both flavorful and authentic.
