Sardine fish podimas

Here comes the second post for today, I am very motivated from this morning!! Its a very easy, fast recipe and tastes very good with Rasam rice.

I store fish that comes in tin, this comes in handy when there is nothing else to cook and you want something quick and tasty.

 

 

Cooking time: 30 mins

 

Ingredients:

Sardine fish tin - 2 (each had about 5 small fishes)
Onion - 3 medium size
Tomato - 1 medium size
Sombu/fennel seeds  - 1 tbsp.
Green Chilies -  3 (I used red as I didn't have green)
Chili powder - 1tbsp
coriander powder - 2 tbsp.
turmeric powder 1 tsp
Oil - 2 tbsp
salt to taste
Lime juice optional

1. Add oil to the pan and add in sombu. Fry this for a min.
2. Add onion and green (red) chilies. Fry the onion till light brown.
3. Add tomatoes and fry till mushy.
   
4. Tin fish comes in either oil or with water in the tin. Drain out this from the fish and add in the fish to the pan.
5. Now fry it for about 10 -15 mins. Add about 1 tsp of lime juice if you like the tangy taste.

This taste best in combination is Rasam rice.
