Meen Kuzhambu is famous in south India and there are many versions of making this curry. We love this version of Kuzhambu and it’s a no fail recipe. We often buy fish and make this along with fish fry. The key to make good fish curry is the balanced amount of tamarind, spice powders and Salt. The freshly ground spices takes this curry to the new level. It goes well with rice, Idli or Dosa and tastes the best next day! So make it bulk and keep it reserved for next day!
