Chinna karuvadu varuval recipe with step by step pictures
Chinna karuvadu varuval is a sidedish recipe for rice. Karuvadu (dry fish) can be made in thokku, kulambu and fry recipes. Today i made this stir fry as a sidedish for lunch.
I dont know the exact name of this dry fish. If anyone knows, then tell me in the comment section. Some people dont like the smell of the karuvadu. But once it is cleaned and cooked, then it has nice aroma and non- vegetarians will love this recipe.
This recipe had taught by my mom to me. It just looks like poriyal. Other dry fish fry recipes are very dry. But this is very soft to eat and its my daughter's favourite. We dont want to scrap the fish and remove heads. It is cooked as it is but must be cleaned twice or thrice in hot water. Hope you like the recipe. Give this a try and let me know how it turns out to you.
Enjoy the food!
