In most South Indian houses, rice will be served for lunch along with fish or chicken or veg curries, veg stir fries, etc. One of my favorite Kerala-style meals is rosematta rice or red rice served with spicy fish curry, to ease out the spiciness of the fish curry either coconut or yogurt curry will be served with it. Combine everything and gobble up, the thought of this meal itself makes my mouth water. Tastes delicious and is truly a comfort food.<\/p>\n<p>Last weekend, I made Kerala-style lunch: rosematta rice, fish curry and kale thoran or stir fry. What&#8217;s missing here? Yes, the Ozhichu curry or the curry to go with fish curry. I made a simple curry with coconut &amp; yogurt, cooked the curry in a saucepan along with the tempering. I loved this curry so much that I kept drinking it till it was finished. That content feeling!!!<\/p>\n<h4><strong>Fish curry recipes<\/strong><\/h4>\n<h4 class=\"entry-title single-entry-title\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/kerala-style-easy-king-fish-curry-or-neymeen-mulagu-curry\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Kerala Style Easy King Fish Curry or Neymeen Mulagu Curry<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-13354\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/king-fish-mulagu-curry-or-spicy-fish-curry.jpg\" alt=\"king fish mulagu curry or spicy fish curry\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/king-fish-mulagu-curry-or-spicy-fish-curry.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/king-fish-mulagu-curry-or-spicy-fish-curry-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2013\/03\/king-fish-mulagu-curry-or-spicy-fish-curry-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<h4 class=\"entry-title single-entry-title\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/spicy-fish-curry-made-in-the-clay-pot\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Spicy Fish Curry made in the Clay Pot<\/a><\/h4>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-4737\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/spicy-fish-curry-made-in-a-clay-pot.jpg\" alt=\"spicy fish curry made in a clay pot\" width=\"475\" height=\"317\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/spicy-fish-curry-made-in-a-clay-pot.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/spicy-fish-curry-made-in-a-clay-pot-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/spicy-fish-curry-made-in-a-clay-pot-84x55.jpg 84w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><strong>Coconut-Yogurt Curry- Ozhichu Curry<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-22360\" src=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Coconut-Yogurt-Curry.jpg\" alt=\"Coconut Yogurt Curry\" width=\"475\" height=\"623\" srcset=\"https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Coconut-Yogurt-Curry.jpg 475w, https:\/\/thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Coconut-Yogurt-Curry-152x200.jpg 152w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 475px) 100vw, 475px\" \/><\/p>\n<div class=\"easyrecipe mceNonEditable\" data-rating=\"0\"> \t<link itemprop=\"image\" href=\"http:\/\/www.thasneen.com\/cooking\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/03\/Coconut-Yogurt-curry.jpg\" \/>\n<div class=\"item ERName\">Coconut Yogurt Curry- Ozhichu Curry Recipe<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERClear\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\"><span class=\"xlate\">Recipe Type<\/span>: <span class=\"type\">Lunch<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cuisine: <span class=\"cuisine\">Indian<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Author: <span class=\"author\">Thasneen<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Prep time: <time itemprop=\"prepTime\" datetime=\"PT5M\">5 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Cook time: <time itemprop=\"cookTime\" datetime=\"PT15M\">15 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Total time: <time itemprop=\"totalTime\" datetime=\"PT20M\">20 mins<\/time><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERHead\">Serves: <span class=\"yield\">4 People<\/span><\/div>\n<div class=\"ERIngredients\">\n<div class=\"ERIngredientsHeader\">Ingredients<\/div>\n<ul class=\"ingredients\">\n<li class=\"ERSeparator\">[b]To grind[\/b]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Grated coconut- 1\/2 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Cumin seeds- 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Fenugreek seeds- 1\/2 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Green chilies- 2<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Curry leaves- 5 leaves<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Turmeric powder- 1\/2 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Water- 1\/2 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ERSeparator\">[b]While cooking the curry[\/b]<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Oil- 1 tbsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Mustard seeds- 1 tsp<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Whole dried red chilies- 2, halved<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Curry leaves- 1 sprig<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Yogurt, thick- 1\/2 cup<\/li>\n<li class=\"ingredient\">Salt- 1 to 1 1\/2 tsp<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"ERInstructions\">\n<div class=\"ERInstructionsHeader\">Instructions<\/div>\n<div class=\"instructions\">\n<ol>\n<li class=\"instruction\">To a blender jar, add all the above-mentioned ingredients &#8220;to grind&#8221;, grind till smooth.<\/li>\n<li class=\"instruction\">Place a claypan or saucepan over medium heat, add oil.
