About Fish Curry

Fish curry is a staple along India's long coastline. The style changes from state to state, but most are tangy and many are made with coconut.

Regional versions

Kerala meen curry is red and sour with kokum or tamarind. Goan fish curry uses coconut and chili, Bengali maacher jhol is light and mustard based, and Mangalorean versions use fresh ground spice pastes.

What to order with it

Eat it with plain rice. Appam or parotta work well with the Kerala versions.

How this list is made

We started from public records, OpenStreetMap and Overture Maps, searched town by town for places those records miss, and read each restaurant's menu from its website or online ordering page. Places whose opening hours we could not confirm recently say so, and we check them again every month. Dishes marked "on the menu" come from the restaurant's own website or ordering page. "Usually served" is our best guess from the style of the place, so call ahead if you have your heart set on it.
