February 10, 2017 by Antonet Roajer

Dry anchovy curry is a popular curry in south India and it tastes spicy and tangy. If you like South Indian fish curry, you should definitely try this dry anchovy curry.dry anchovy curry

 

This curry is also known as Karuvadu curry in Chennai. In most of the Tamil movies, you might come across this curry, I inspired to make this curry after watching it in a cooking show.

Though the instructions and ingredients are lengthy, it is easy to make in 30 minutes. Cook this curry at least 2 hours before serving. You could also add Indian eggplants, drumsticks in this curry and adjust adding spices and salt according to your taste. Add salt after tasting the curry at the end, because dry anchovy is salty by itself.
