FIERY RED FISH CURRY

Here is my fish curry recipe which is very instant fish curry with no marination as such.

My mom doesnt like to use much masala powder available in market so as me.

I use her recipe with modifications, so you can use any masalas at whichever step you usually use.

This is red color of fish curry is by the grounded kashmiri chilly .My mom prepare all spice powder for months together and give to me,my aunt etc.

Before we start clean the fish with water and then add little salt and turmeric while washing to give and extra edge.
