Being a Keralan at heart, I always loved eating fish and all seafood. So incredibly tasty! And also so light on the stomach. This is the best part now on my Paleo diet. I eat fish 80% of the time for my protein and hence I am constantly looking out for new recipes. Well I have quite […]

Teriyaki Salmon (Paleo, AIP)
I happened to come across an authentic recipe of Teriyaki Salmon on CPTV last month where the chef was a native Japanese Chef who was showing how to prepare an elaborate Japanese meal. It was quite enchanting to watch how she cooked using very simple ingredients and yet was able to create wonderful dishes! One […]
Crispy Fish bites (Paleo, Gluten free)
I recently started eating Flounder and I love its delicate flavor and its soft, flaky texture. Since it doesn’t have a strong flavor of its own, it can easily take in the flavor of the marinade the you cook it in. So I have been experimenting cooking it with different spices. It tastes great just […]
Coconut Calamari (Paleo)
OK so ever since I made those beef cutlets with a coconut crust, I have been thinking of using that technique to make other crispy coatings! I got my chance to try it again when hubby picked up squid last weekend while picking up seafood. I usually cook squid(calamari) Kerala Style which is to sauté it […]
Spicy Masala Salmon (Chettinad Style Fish Fry)
Fish Fry is as important to a Keralite as water is to fish. I apologize if I have said this before in my posts but this is so true! Rice, Daal with a side of spicy pan fried fish was a very common fare growing up and thankfully due to my ‘fish’loving’ husband, it is quite […]
Kerala Fish Curry without coconut milk || Fish Curry with Kodampuli || Meenu Mulakittathu
Fish curry is as essential to a Malayalee as water is to fish 🙂 I have already posted the typical Kerala fish curry that is cooked most often in our home. That curry uses coconut milk and kodampuli (a variety of kokum that is indigenous to Kerala). The version I am posting today is the […]
Salmon in spicy mustard sauce (Bengali Style Fish Curry)
When it comes to eating fish, I don’t think any other state in India can beat the Bongs (bengalis) or the Mallus (Keralites) 🙂 I am so relieved that my naturopath has asked me to continue eating fish as it is beneficial for me. So be prepared for a deluge of fish recipes! Nothing can stop […]
Herbed Salmon Cakes (Hara Bhara Fish Cutlets)
In our family, we do have some differences when it comes to food preferences…but there is one thing that we all have in common and that’s our love for seafood! Oh boy, I am so glad that our kids have both developed a palate for fish just like my husband and I. We love our seafood in […]
Moroccan Style Grilled Fish with Chermoula (Fish Brochettes)
Morocco fascinates me. I don’t know much about the country except that it is in North Africa but it fascinates me. The cuisine with a mix of North African, Middle Eastern and European influences sounds too, too exotic to me! Oh how I would love to visit there sometime! To appease my inquisitiveness for now, I […]
Calamari – 2 ways! : Spicy Sauteed and Chick Pea batter fried
Until a few years ago I thought that calamari was ‘fried squid’ – i.e I thought the name of the dish where squid was fried was calamari! So I am sure that some of you might still be under that confusion. So let’s clear your doubts. Calamari, is just the Italian name for squid. And the dish that most […]
Around the World #3: Sri Lankan Fish Curry
If you love fish, you have got to taste this curry! This is an aromatic, ‘oh so fragrant’, ‘tantalizing to the taste buds’ type of curry.! It has the flavors of so many spices – this recipe uses the SriLankan Curry powder, which I posted last week. All you need is some rice and some […]
Shrimp sautéed with coconut (Prawns and coconut stir fry)
Prawns or shrimp are one of the most common and popular seafood item in my kitchen. You will agree with this I am sure since I have probably posted about a dozen shrimp recipes too here on my blog already. Shrimp is so easy to work with and so versatile. You cannot go wrong with […]
