Raaja Phanna Upkari / Mackerel Spicy Curry

Writer: Nandini R KiniNandini R Kini

Raja Phanna Upkari is a super-spicy, delightfully tangy Konkani dish made with very few ingredients. "Raja" here refers to mackerel and somehow for me, this fish is irreplaceable. Of course, you can make this dish with prawns or tilapia or any other type of fish. This is a typical GSB style preparation.


Ingredients

4 bangda fish (mackerel)

3 onions

8 tsp oil

2 green chillies

salt to taste


for masala:

1/2 tsp coriander seeds

2 tbsp fresh grated coconut

12 red chillies

2 tsp tamarind pulp


Procedure


  • Wash and clean the fish and cut into pieces

  • Roast coriander seeds.red chillies, coconut in 1/2 tsp oil and grind to a fine paste with tamarind

  • In a pan fry chopped onions in oil till light brown

  • Add masala, slit green chilli and fry for 5 minutes

  • Put 1/2 cup water, mackerel pieces, salt to taste n cook till the fish is cooked
