Meen Varuval (Fish Fry)

Fish is an important source of omega-3 fatty acids. It has a reputation of being low calorie and high protein food. Eating fish once or twice a week can be enough to reap its benefits. 

Generally, i go for fish kuzhambu rather than varuval coz i used to buy it in nearby supermarket. Last week i went to beach with 'K' for Funtime and met a tamil fisherman. After enquiring, he gave his number and asked to contact him if i need fish. I ordered for a fish of any variety but a fresh catch fish. He brought a sack full of sankara uncut fish. The next full week comes fish kuzhambu, fish fry, fish patties menu for meal. And here comes beach side fish fry:
