Nethili fry is addictive and tastes so yummylicious and very easy to cook. Once you prepare it, you start to keep on doing it. Many people asked me about the raw smell from well cooked nethili. I always suggest to add lemon juice and while marinate it put lemon skin also in that bowl, it removes fish odor.

ReplyDeleteThis looks delicious. I love anchovies! I grew up eating a similar, but simpler dish, of fried smelt fish. It's good on hot rice with some soy sauce. I like how this looks spicier and has a variety of flavors that go into it.
