Meen Peera (Jaya’s recipe)


1.5 - 2 cups grated coconut
1 tilapia fish

layer the two (coconut at bottom and top)
take 2 small onions, ginger, slit green chillies, curry leaves, salt
sprinkle water (1/2 water)
add kokum (boiled in water) or tamarind
cover till fish is cooked (10-15 mins)
use a fork and mix it up (flaked)


made with small fish typically (sardines, veluri etc)

My changes to the recipe
Ground the coconut without water with the green chilly, haldi, salt, curry leaves and a little chilly powder
Lightly fried onions, ginger, garlic, chilly flakes and curry leaves in coconut oil, added a bit of salt to taste and the ground coconut mixture, fish and then the tamarind juice. Covered and cooked, opening a few times to turn over.
