NB:

1. Instead of shallots you can use onion/ savala...then add little more red chilli pwd as big onion have a temptation to make the dish little bit sweet...also the onion must become brown..


2. Always make the fish curry earlier, as the fish requires time to absorb all the flavours added in curry....


3. You can replace the kudampuli with normal tamarind paste...though the curry taste more with kudampuli/ malabar tamarind
