Over the last two years, I posted four vegetarian pickles on the blog –raw mango pickle , mango and carrot pickle, lemon pickle, lemon curry. So, this time I thought I’ll share with you a Kerala fish pickle recipe that is spicy and full of flavor. The preparation method is very similar to that of other pickles. The important thing to remember is to choose firm flesh fish so the pieces won’t fall apart when fried. So, here’s my new favorite!!
