My Thali 45.


My Thali 45 ... "Dhoma / Croaker Fish Curry With Teppal (Sichuan Pepper)” Served with Red Ukda (Boiled) Rice and Bhendi Bhaji (Lady’s Finger Upkari) … An aromatic spicy fish curry with the addition of teppal and garlic that goes very well when served with Red Ukda (Boiled) Rice … Yummy Yumz …... 


** This fish curry is for all those fish lovers who love eating South Indian Style Curry with boiled rice. The combo is awesome and you can serve it with any rice if you do not eat ukda rice. My suggestion however, is to always serve fish curry with rice, but you can go in for roti too. Do try out this curry and enjoy with your family and friends. Dhoma / Croaker are a fish easily available in India. Though I had seen this many times in the fish market, it was only about five to six year back that I started purchasing it. I was not sure about the fish as it was never brought and prepared in my Mom’s place nor was it brought in our home after my marriage. 

** A few years back a friend of mine was purchasing it with our fish vendor and I happened to be around at that time. I asked her about the fish, though she could not put much light on the same about the method of preparation, etc. how her Mother made, she urged me to purchase the same, and I bought only one and came home. I guess the fish croaks a bit when live, hence the name but it is called Dhoma in Mumbai. Since the fish is slightly sweetish in taste I prepare it spicier along with Teppal / Sichuan pepper, which gives it, added flavor too. After that, I have frequently bought the fish as and when they are available. The same can be prepared in panna upkari style another Konkani Saraswat delicacy in fish and it tastes awesome. I will soon post the same and you may try out this one until then.
