Procedure
Soak the tamarind and required salt in 3 to 4 cups of water. Keep a flat bottom kadai in
the stove. Pour 2 to 3 spoons of oil(gingelly oil if available will be the best).Season with
Fennel seeds-1 teaspoon
Fenugreek seeds-1/2 teaspoon
Curry leaf-little
Addthe minced onion, garlic and tomato and sauté well for 3 minutes. Now add the
tamarind water. Add the chilly powder and coriander powder also and wait till the
mixture boils. Once it starts boiling keep the stove in sim and allow the curry to cook in
low fire for 10 to 12 minutes till the gravy has reduced to half. Now slowly add the fish
one by one in such a way that all the pieces stay aloof. Once the fish is added, you will
find the gravy becoming watery. Increase the flame a little and cook for 5 more minutes.
Always make sure that you use the gravy only 2 or 3 hours after cooking.(this time is for
the fish to get the taste of the gravy) .It is always better not to transfer the contents to
another vessel since the fishes are likely to break while transferring.

Vaaval meen kulambu
Buying fish from market can be a very pleasant experience, if
you seriously love seafood. In my hometown we prepare the
fish kuzhambu in earthenware, which yields a native flavor.
Nothing can beat a meen kulambu prepared in clay vessel.
Love to remember the way hubby and myself searched for this
earthenware vessel to make the fish curry in Madras:)
I prepared this curry using pomfret fish. We can use any fish
for this recipe.
Fish kulambu:
Items required:
Fish - 1 lb
sesame oil - 2 tbsp
mustard seeds- 1 tsp
fenugreek seeds- 1/2 tsp
Tamarind - 1 small keylime size
Red chilly powder -1.5 tsp
coriander powder- 3 tsp
turmeric powder-1/4 tsp
tomato - 2
green chillies - 2
curry leaves- 2 sprigs.
To grind:
shredded coconut - 1/2 cup
shallot - 8
cumin seeds - 1 tsp
Method:
wash the fish and remove all the fins and scales by a knife.
Then slice it into big chunks.
Apply little turmeric powder over the fish and keep aside.
Serving suggestions:
Serve hot with rice , chapathi or Idly or dosai .
Deep fried fish, omelet ,ripe mango are good side dishes along
with meen kuzhambu and rice.
