1 of 24 3/24/2013 12:24 PM
Coriander leaves - handful (chopped finely)
Oil - 7 tbsp
Proceed:
1) Heat oil in a non-stick Kadhai, add green chillies and
curry leaves and fry well, keep few for garnishing
2) To the above add onion paste or sliced shallots and fry
for 5 mins. on medium heat.
3) Add gg paste, turmeric, red chilli powder and masala
powder and fry for few mins. Mix well.
4) Layer the fish pieces on top, close the lid and cook for few
mins, turn over carefully, rotate the dish and cook for few more
mins. by closing lid.
5) Add water until fish pieces are immersed, keep the heat on
high, when it is started boiling, simmer and cover for 10 mins.
6) Add tamarind pulp, close the lid and cook until oil floats on
top and the raw smell of tamarind disappears, do not mix the
curry with the spatula instead carefully hold both the handle of
the dish and rotate.
7) Add coriander leaves and check for salt, cook it for 5
more mins and serve. While serving, garnish with curry leaves
and green chillies which is been fried earlier.
Serve with Plain White Rice.
Tips:
* For this dish use shallots, if you don't have then do as above. I
would recommend to use shallots to get that authentic taste of
Andhra Chepala Pulusu. For shallots no need to fry or grind as
normal onion, you can slice them thinly and fry in oil directly,
just follow point 2.
* When u have added fish pieces, do not mix with spatula,
instead rotate the dish or otherwise fish becomes mushy.
* For Indian curry's do not use Salmon. Any other firm fish will
do. For Indians use Bochu Cheppa, Sheelavathi, Pulsa variety.
* Only for River fishes (ex: Bochu cheppa, Pulsa) we do pulusu

style. For Sea fish ( ex: Tella Sanduva or Silver Pompfret,
Vanjeeram) do iguru type, means with out adding any
tamarind to it, but replacing with my chicken masala powder to
the above method.
* Pulusu and Iguru type curries have their own masalas, so do
not add cloves and say pulusu. In here we omit the cloves and
cinnamon.
Masala Powder:
Coriander seeds - 3 tsp, Poppy seeds (white) - 1 tsp,
Cardamom - 4 no. {Grind all these together in to fine
powder}.
********For New Zealand Fish:
Blue Warehou and Mullet are good for Fish Curry or Pulusu.
Trivally and Red Snapper is good for Fish Vepudu or Fry.
Meaning:
Mullet = Koyyingalu (we call these in telugu language, when
they are small we call them katti chepalu, big we call them
koyyingalu)

Rajani,
Thanks for the recipe. I am a vegetarian but my husband is a
non-vegetarian (from Kerala). He loves any kind of fish and
this hopefully will be a great introduction to the Andhra
Cuisine for him. Will have to try it out when we get fish next
time.

Nav

Rajani garu
I tried this recipe yesterday with tomato puree (since i like
taginess from tomato instead of tamarind) and it turned out
great with sea fish!
However, i wanted to kno if there is any other gravy variety in
andhra fish food... and why don't we use garam masala?
10/5/08
Rajani Rayudu said...
Hi KK,
For Traditional Andhra dishes we won't use garam masala if it
is Tamarind based dish. It's ok If there is no tomato or
tamarind based curries using garam masala.
Using different variety of fish in curry's it changes entire taste,
like Sanduva iguru, Nellore chepala pulusu (this one uses
tomato), Katti chepala kura, Methadalu kura, Pulsa kura.
These are all gravy dishes.
Hope! you understood what I am saying. Thanks for dropping
by and thank you for letting me know how it went for you.

Hi Nice blog. Very colorful and good. I will try your fish
pulusu today. It is the same way that my mother does . But I
am wondering whether I should do this with catfish or tilapia
or salmon. I wish I could find the one that we get in INDIA
here in USA. Anyways will give it a try. I saw other blogs
where they had added tomato to this dish but I dont think it
tastes good. will go with yours. Again grt colorful blog. Keep
rocking.
14/3/09
Rajani Rayudu said...
Hi MAC,
Thanks for visting my blog, actually you should change your
name to MAC :-).
Salmon is good for tandoori style cooking, some how I don't
like in any gravy or pulusu dishes. Tilapia is too soft for this
kind of pulusu, so i don't use that. Cat fish might work for you.
I don't use tomato either, but for nellore pulusu I definitely
add.
You are lucky staying in US, most of the shops I have seen in
LA they are selling nice Indian fish near Pasadena.
Best of luck!

HI
Thanks for the recipe.I am a male who like this dish a lot.I
tried cooking this dish using this website and it was a lot
helpful.now i know how to make this dish.Although the fish in
US are not as good,but the dish i made was not bad.In Andhra
pradesh this dish is considered as a tough one since only few
people could cook chepala pulusa perfectly.but i tried this one
using ur recipe and i thought it was perfect.
Thanks again
ajay
29/3/09
Rajani Rayudu said...
Hi Ajay,
Thanks for your feedback. We can't beat Indian fish, but has to
compromise the fish we get here. The key is to know the fish
before you even start cooking, like how fast it cooks, whether
tastes good in curry, how firm it is. Fresh is always the best......
I am glad it turned out well for you, Keep up your kitchen
adventures and do try other dishes too from my blog :-)

Rajani,
I followed this recipe with little modifications, it came out
great. My husband who is not too fond of sea food had two
fish fillets with dinner.
I am really fond of my mom's cooking, I hope to learn about
lot more about your mother's cooking style through you.
I used fresh wild Sea Bass for this dish. For folks in USA, i
think Sea Bass is a good option for pulusu.
Have a wonderful day,
Vijaya

Hi Vijaya,
I am happy to read you both liked the dish. I googled the sea
bass, but it looks so scary. May be people who haven't tired
might give it a go.

Dear Rajani,
Thanks for the Preparation.
I made it my home and enjoyed it.
While writing, you may mention Telugu Name in Bracket, So
Telugu people can easily find it more easily to understand.
Pray Divine for a prosperous Life for you.
If possible, try to include Home made pickles like Gongura,
Dondakai with Bera pottu etc...
As love food, may be send few of my mother preparations in
few days, So friends can enjoy it.
Good Luck,

Hi Lakshmi,
My Sister also lives there she uses cat fish for pulusu varieties.
Hi Soujanya,
Thanks for your feed back. I am glad you both loved it.
Hi Anon,
Well, have you tried by adding it. It gives flavor to a dish. If
you don't like by all means remove and make the curry the
way you like.
Hi Kaberi,
Welcome to my blog. Do try and let me know your feed back.
Hi V,
Salmon I would make tandoori marination and do fry style
only.
Hi Anon,
Thanks for your feed back and appreciation. Will include them

Regarding your query - 2 mins curry ante fatafatt ayyevi
chicken 65, egg bhurji, chicken pulao, prawn curry, breakfast
ki opt for upma, pesarettu, or even ready made mix like mtr
idli mix. If you have idli stand then make the chutney in bulk
saripada and keep in fridge. chana curry is also easy to make
for evenings, left overs can be used for puri chana. egg bhurji
left over ayite next day chapati ki bavutundhi cheyatem
kastem anipiste ready made tortillas vuntayi kada margarine
raasi cook it on tawa for few secs on both sides. Mostly
weekend wash the spinach leaves cut and keep in freezer bags
and use for dal dishes more easy or even cook the dal with
leaves, but do not add any popu to it and keep in fridge, when
you are ready eating do seasoning stuff for required amount of
dal and have it, this way dal tastes fresh too. or just make
tomato curry with vadiyalu or omelette. or even daddojanem
or lemon rice for one pot meals.
will post if you want recipes for these. see ya.

your recipe, i.e. Tamarind and Ginger. It came out exceedingly
well. I think I will bookmark this recipe forever. Thanks

Hi Rajani garu
Thanks for awesome chepala pulusu. Achu maa amma
cheppinatle undi....I have a suggestion.. Add fried a tea spoon
of menthulu(methi)and cumin in place of cardamom to the
masala powder. It smells and tastes very good. Smell of
cardamom doesn't go with fish curries.. my opinion
Cheers
afsar
20/6/11
Rajani Rayudu said...
Hi Afsar,
ya I think if you add fenugreek and cumin then no need of
cardamom they both tastes differently. We have freinds from
telangana region they add menthulu jeelakarra podi in fish
pulusu where as I add cardamom too. but both versions tastes
good. Thanks for your tip......

Dear Ms Rajani, thank you for the great fish curry. every thing
is fine. Your last recomendation serve with yogurt is strange.
Ayurveda advises that fish products and dairy products dont
go together and ayurveda texts say leads to skin conditions. so
avoid dairy products like milk yogurt cheese etc on the same
meal.

Hi Anonymous,
Good point!!!!! I removed yoghurt thing now. We used to do
that when we were kids not eating yoghurt.
Can we add yoghurt while cooking fish? is it not advisable.
