Goan Fish?

Savvy7 · May 31st, 2006, 21:33

Hi all,

I bought some wonderful fish masala while I was passing through Goa last year --- does anyone know what kind of fish is typically used in Goan fish curry?

(or an equivalent that I might be able to find in NYC?)

Thanks everyone!!

Sometimes pomfret is used. Check out this wicked cookbook/travel book: Mangoes and Curry Leaves by two Toronto authors. It has great recipes and stories.

yum.

Mackrel, pomfret, king fish, sardines, Tuna, shark, and and and

More than likely it was kingfish. Pomfret is more expensive. Mackerel with a masala stuffing. Shark Rava fry is good.

t might help if you describe what the fish looked like. whether it was served whole or in slices.
