Tips: * For this dish use shallots, if you don't have then do as above. I

would recommend to use shallots to get that authentic taste of Andhra Chepala Pulusu. For shallots no need to fry or grind as normal onion, you can slice them thinly and fry in oil directly,

However, i wanted to kno if there is any other gravy variety in andhra fish food... and why don't we use garam masala? 10/5/08

Gourd Tomato Curry Vankaya Chikkudu Ginjala Kura/

Rajani Rayudu said... Hi KK, For Traditional Andhra dishes we won't use garam masala if it is Tamarind based dish. It's ok If there is no tomato or tamarind based curries using garam masala.

Eggplant Lilva Curry with Raw-Tamarind Twist Vankaya/ Chinese Eggplant Tomato Curry

Using different variety of fish in curry's it changes entire taste, like Sanduva iguru, Nellore chepala pulusu (this one uses tomato), Katti chepala kura, Methadalu kura, Pulsa kura.

Non-Vege These are all gravy dishes. Hope! you understood what I am saying. Thanks for dropping by and thank you for letting me know how it went for you. cheers rajani

Hi Nice blog. Very colorful and good. I will try your fish pulusu today. It is the same way that my mother does . But I am wondering whether I should do this with catfish or tilapia or salmon. I wish I could find the one that we get in INDIA here in USA. Anyways will give it a try. I saw other blogs where they had added tomato to this dish but I dont think it tastes good. will go with yours. Again grt colorful blog. Keep rocking.

Sweets Badusha Rawa Kesari

14/3/09 Rajani Rayudu said... Hi MAC, Thanks for visting my blog, actually you should change your name to MAC :-). Salmon is good for tandoori style cooking, some how I don't like in any gravy or pulusu dishes. Tilapia is too soft for this kind of pulusu, so i don't use that. Cat fish might work for you.

I don't use tomato either, but for nellore pulusu I definitely add.

Hi Ajay, Thanks for your . We can't beat Indian fish, but has to compromise the fish we get here. The key is to know the fish before you even start cooking, like how fast it cooks, whether tastes good in curry, how firm it is. Fresh is always the best...... I am glad it turned out well for you, Keep up your kitchen adventures and do try other dishes too from my blog :-)

Hi Rajani, while the recipe is good, No one uses Karivepaku in Non veg In Andhra , So it is not an authenticated Andhra Chepala pulusu 23/1/11 Kaberi Chatterjee said... hey rajani,first time I m visting your blog.Very nice and easy andhra recipes.I will try one by one to make my telugu husband happy. :) 12/2/11 Anonymous said... Thanks Rajani, What do you suggest for Salmon,Indian way? V 15/2/11 Anonymous said... Dear Rajani, Thanks for the Preparation. I made it my home and enjoyed it. While writing, you may mention Telugu Name in Bracket, So Telugu people can easily find it more easily to understand. Pray Divine for a prosperous Life for you. If possible, try to include Home made pickles like Gongura, Dondakai with Bera pottu etc... As love food, may be send few of my mother preparations in few days, So friends can enjoy it. Good Luck, TVRao [email protected] 16/2/11 Rajani Rayudu said... HI Anon, Ya sure will post it leisurely, came from holiday. forgot everything after a long holiday :-) Hi Pa, Happy cooking!!!!

Hi Lakshmi, My Sister also lives there she uses cat fish for pulusu varieties. Hi Soujanya, Thanks for your feed back. I am glad you both loved it. Hi Anon, Well, have you tried by adding it. It gives flavor to a dish. If you don't like by all means remove and make the curry the way you like. Hi Kaberi, Welcome to my blog. Do try and let me know your feed back. Hi V, Salmon I would make tandoori marination and do fry style only. Hi Anon, Thanks for your feed back and appreciation. Will include them in future.

Regarding your query - 2 mins curry ante fatafatt ayyevi chicken 65, egg bhurji, chicken pulao, prawn curry, breakfast ki opt for upma, pesarettu, or even ready made mix like mtr idli mix. If you have idli stand then make the chutney in bulk saripada and keep in fridge. chana curry is also easy to make for evenings, left overs can be used for puri chana. egg bhurji left over ayite next day chapati ki bavutundhi cheyatem kastem anipiste ready made tortillas vuntayi kada margarine raasi cook it on tawa for few secs on both sides. Mostly weekend wash the spinach leaves cut and keep in freezer bags and use for dal dishes more easy or even cook the dal with leaves, but do not add any popu to it and keep in fridge, when you are ready eating do seasoning stuff for required amount of dal and have it, this way dal tastes fresh too. or just make tomato curry with vadiyalu or omelette. or even daddojanem or lemon rice for one pot meals. will post if you want recipes for these. see ya. cheers rajani 1/3/11 Sandeep Bhalla said... I loved the Andhra Fish Curry at the restaurant. Thought of making one at home. I used Bhetki fillet but followed exactly your recipe, i.e. Tamarind and Ginger. It came out exceedingly well. I think I will bookmark this recipe forever. Thanks 28/3/11 Rajani Rayudu said... Hi Sandeep, Thanks for your feed back. Betki fish is it a bengali name, sounds interesting. I wonder can we get other parts of India too, if so what might be the name? cheers rajani 31/3/11 Ramesh said... Currently I am in US and I thought of preparing fish curry from long time, but unable to as i donno how to prepare. Today I prepared and it was very good. Thanks a lot for the recipe.. 12/4/11 Rajani Rayudu said... Hi Ramesh, Thanks for your feed back. I am glad you enjoyed in making it.

Hi Shilpa, thanks for the link. by now people might have understood it's my recipe. cheers rajani 31/5/11 afsar said... Hi Rajani garu Thanks for awesome chepala pulusu. Achu maa amma cheppinatle undi....I have a suggestion.. Add fried a tea spoon of menthulu(methi)and cumin in place of cardamom to the masala powder. It smells and tastes very good. Smell of cardamom doesn't go with fish curries.. my opinion Cheers afsar 20/6/11 Rajani Rayudu said... Hi Afsar, ya I think if you add fenugreek and cumin then no need of cardamom they both tastes differently. We have freinds from telangana region they add menthulu jeelakarra podi in fish pulusu where as I add cardamom too. but both versions tastes good. Thanks for your tip...... cheers rajani 26/6/11 Wholesale Fish Suppliers said... Thanks for your receipe... Its really very nice.... 10/8/11 Rajani Rayudu said... Hi WFS,

I discovered this recipe on your site a while ago... nd tried it so many times, each time was very successful. this recipe is amazing. just want to say thanks so much for posting it, my father loves it a LOT :) we all do. thanks again 17/7/12 Anonymous said... Dear Ms Rajani, thank you for the great fish curry. every thing is fine. Your last recomendation serve with yogurt is strange. Ayurveda advises that fish products and dairy products dont go together and ayurveda texts say leads to skin conditions. so avoid dairy products like milk yogurt cheese etc on the same meal. 5/8/12 Rajani Rayudu said... Hi Anonymous, Good point!!!!! I removed yoghurt thing now. We used to do that when we were kids not eating yoghurt. Can we add yoghurt while cooking fish? is it not advisable. cheers rajani 6/8/12 seafood said...
