POMFRET MASALA FRY WITH CURRY LEAVES

Fishes provides an excellent source of nutrients to our body. One among is the POMFRET fish which my little one loves to have all the time. It contains high amount omega 3 fatty acids which reduces the risks of cardiovascular problem development. It supplies DHA which is an important component for brain development. Now back to recipe, pan fried masala fry with spices makes delicious South Indian dish. Addition of curry leaves brings you  the touch of  keralian cuisine straight from God's own country Kerala. The spicy aroma and its taste is just irresistible and inviting one and all to dining. If you what, you can conserve the masala paste to an air tight containers and keep them into fridge for a week too.
