    Being a native of Kerala, fish flows in my menus. Shallow fried spicy keralan fish is OMG yummy. My SIL's dad always says, what's there in life if one can't have a fillet of fried king fish for lunch. Hat's of uncle :-) Recently the whole health-fitness theme has made me try baking/grilling my fish and chicken. A tiny splash of olive oil is all it needs for that heavenly taste. My friend S is a veteran on grilling fish, she adds fenugreek powder to the marinade which helps take the fishy smell away. One can try baking all sorts of fish. I luv salmon, mackerel, sardines and recently herring the best for Keralan style marinade. Herring, also called 'the silver of the sea' are very high in the long-chain Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA. They are a source of vitamin D. Now, who will buy herring the next time u r at the fish mongers?
