Hubby loves dried fish curry, not only dried fish, he love anything fish. I have mentioned this all the times whenever i postfish recipes. I love making fish curries for him and sit on his side asking him how it taste, because each time i makedifferent curries. Most of the time it ishis favorite fish curry.I have posted adried fish fry recipebefore, that is the first time i cooked using dried fish. Dried fish is only for the heavy fish lovers, because it has a intense fishy taste which i dont like. And also it is packed with tons of salt, so you have to wash it well to get rid of it and also you shouldn’t add any salt untill the dish is finished, taste it and add it in the end.

Now coming to this recipe, couple weeks back when me and hubby where shopping, he found few packed of dried fish in the shelves. Immediately he got couple of packets of them. And i used them to make this dish and it tasted really good. Try to find dried fish which is packed properly and looks clean, imported dried fish can have less salts,I have shared a tip of soaking the dried fish in hot boiling water for 15 mins before you cook them, this will remove most of the salt and make it soft. So follow this recipe and let me know if it tried it.
