Fish Molly Recipe

Fish Molly is Kerala’s one of the most popular fish curries, prepared in thick coconut milk with spices and it is best server with Palappam.

It’s nice to note that this dish is also popular in Malaysia & Singapore. I prefer Kingfish/Surmai for this recipe, though you can try similar fish for this recipe.

For the marination

  • Fish( Surmai/Neimeen/Kingfish) – 500 gms
  • Pepper powder – 1 tsp
