Skate or Ray (Pakat) Fish Lonvas is a cooling curry apt for the warm summer weather.


It’s a fish you sometimes love, and sometimes don’t. Friends who visit from abroad are always surprised that they’re eating shark fish fingers (Mom’s speciality). Then comes the explanation that mushi as we call it is actually a milk shark and is commonly eaten in India. It’s eaten simply fried with bottle masala, turned into cutlets, or used in curries like the lonvas. And if you know how to make a pakat lonvas, you can easily make a mushi lonvas. The recipe is fairly easy.

  • 2 Tablespoons Oil

Instructions
 

  • Cut the shark fish into 2-inch pieces. (We usually get the fisher lady to do this for us.)
  • Crush the garlic with a mortar and fry it in oil for 2 minutes.
  • Add the chilies, salt, coconut, bottle masala, and curry leaves and 200 ml water and cook on a high flame for about 5 minutes.
  • Add the amboshi and about 300 ml more water and cook for another 2 minutes (still on the high flame.)
