Spicy Sri Lankan Fish Curry (Malu Mirisata)

Yesterday I cooked a Spicy Sri Lankan Fish Curry  (Malu Mirisata) and thought of sharing it today!Surprise!!Usually I take a long time to upload pics and write a blog post.Still there are lot of recipes and photos waiting in a folder which I cooked and captured early this year. πŸ™‚ 
Anyway,as Sri Lanka is an island,we consume plenty of fish and seafood.There are different methods to cook fish as a curry and I have shared some recipes before in this post Fish Curry and in this post Sri Lankan style fish curry.
If you check this Ambul Thiyal recipe,it is one of the best Fish Recipes from Sri Lanka!! 

 Spicy Sri Lankan Fish Curry (Malu Mirisata)


Ingredients (2-3 servings) 
250g fish (Tuna or some big/firm fish is better) 
2 tablspn Red chilly powder
1 tablspn black pepper  
3 cloves of garlic
1 sprig Curry leaves 
2-3 pieces Goraka(gamboge) or tarmarind pulp/paste 1 tspn
Sliced onion (1/2 of a medium sized onion)
Salt to taste

Method: 
Wash fish and cut into pieces.Grind black pepper,garlic and red chili powder into a paste.Mix this spicy paste with fish pieces.
Add Goraka or tarmarind,curry leaves,salt and onion together with1 cup of water.
Cook in a low flame for about 15 minutes or until fish is cooked.For an appealing and tasty curry,the gravy should be thick & near to dry!
Adjust salt to taste.
remove from flame & serve with rice,bread or roti.

I never eat Sri Lankan food as it is too spicy. I would love to try this fish curry with mild spice. Looks yummy.
Thanks for sharing.
