When I was going through my labels,noticed that I haven't posted any fish recipes so far.As I am allergic to sea foods are rare in my house.But both hubby dear and my son likes fish kulambhu and fry a lot.To satisfy their taste buds an easy to make preparation is the fish fry with fillets which doesn't need much of cleaning and no bones in it.Fish fry with the fillets is not only easy for cleaning,kids can also enjoy it without the bones.This recipe can be followed for the fish fry with other varieties of fish also.Now on to the recipe.........
