Being a seafood lover I love to cook different varieties and for the first time tired a Sri Lankan fish curry. This curry is made with lot of pot tamarind and this acts as a preservative which helps the curry last long. Loved to have this with rice and puttu.
I got this recipe from a friend and was thinking it might taste the same as kerala fish curry as the ingredients are alike but the taste was new to me because in this curry the pot tamarind is made into paste.
