The most delicious and authentic south Indian recipe made with a traditional combination of freshly grinded spices.

Vanjaram Meen Varuval is a dish from Kerala cuisine. It is made of fish that is cooked in a thick, spicy paste of ground coconut, red chillies and other spices.

The dish has an interesting history. The name Vanjaram means “fish curry” in Malayalam and the dish was originally prepared by fishermen who would cook it on their boats using fresh fish they caught that day. This dish was traditionally eaten with rice or idlis (steamed rice cakes).
