Kerala Style Red Fish Curry - Made with Koyala Fish 🐟
Today’s lunch was our regular fish - Koyala ( Garfish in English) . This fish looks like Mackeral but it's not. We made the classic Kerala-style red fish curry using this fish a variety that's fresh and easily available in Trivandrum.
One reason why we buy this fish is that it's always available in the market and compared to mackeal this doesn't get bad fast. In short, it stays fresh. Also, I feel mackerel ( Ayila as we call it) is mostly adulerated ones. It looks fresh in the fish shop, but when we prepare it, a bad taste of a stale fish comes out. ( I'm not sure why it keeps happening and that's one reason I keep out of ayila fish. Otherwise, ayila is more tasty than koyala)
Cooked in clay pot with tamarind, red chili, coconut oil, and curry leaves, this dish brings back the warmth of traditional kitchens. Tastes even better the next day!
