Fish(Thilapia) Fry/Meen Varuval

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.........

Rava Kozhukattai/Rava Pidi kozhukattai

For the alphabet R,I decided to make something with rava aka semolina.But I have blogged most of the  rava recipes  in Tamil cuisine. When I was going through the cook books and hand written recipes,rava kozhukattai caught my attention. The method of making this kozhukattai is same as  upma kozhukattai ,whereas rava/semolina is used instead of rice.Both sweet and savory versions can be made with semolina.As we had lot of sweet dishes in the previous week I made the savory version.Soon share the sweet version.This is a great option for evening snack and I served with coconut chutney.Lets move on to the  recipe............                                                                                          ...
