For many weddings and parties, after the round of Appams, Bakery Bread (Rotti) is served with another side dish.

Step to make Kerala combo meal:
  1. MAKING OF KARIMEEN POLLICHATHU Clean the fish and then marinate the fish with excess salt and half lime juice as required. Leave it for 10 minute The salt and lime will remove the dark skin colour and the salt will keep the fish firm. Marinate the fish with the marinate ingredients mentioned. Keep aside for 10-15
  2. Heat 1 tbsp coconut oil for shallow fry, add few curry leaves and sear each side of the fish for a minute each. Remove the fish from the pan and keep aside in a closed container to retain the warmth and fragrance. Slice the onions, and tomatoes, finely slice or grate ginger and tomatoe Use the same pan of fish fry and add 1/2 tbsp coconut oil (if required only).
  3. Drop in the onions and saute it for approximate 1 minute, add in the salt, ginger, turmeric powder and chilli powder. Saute it till the spices get roasted and finally add in 1 1/2 of the sliced tomatoe Add 1/2 tbsp lime juice, give it a quick toss, and off the flame. I like the tomatoes to be just coated with the species and not to cook at the moment. Divide the mixture into 4 portion
  4. Wash the banana leaf carefully or wipe the leaf with wet cloth. Pat dry the water droplets from the leaf and very lightly heat the leaf on medium flame (to make the leaf flexible and unbreakable while folding). Cut the leaves more than double the size of the fish. Assemble the fish by placing 1 portion of the masala in flat layer on the leaf, place the fish on top, again place 1 portion of the masala on the fish. Top with one sprig of curry leaf and ginger julienne.
  5. Fold the leaf from all the sides, making it as a parcel, if required can tie a string.
  6. Heat a pan with 1 tbsp coconut oil and place the parcel in the pan, cover the pan and let it cook on flow flame for approximate 5 to 6 minutes on each side. If needed drizzle little oil to avoid the burning of the leaf. When cooking on low flame the fish will amalgamate the fragrance of the banana leaf. Serve hot with Rice, Chapathi or Kerala Parotha.
  7. MAKING OF CHEMMEEN MASALA (Prawns Masala) Mix together the marinade ingredients and coat the prawns well. Set aside for 15 minute
  8. In a pan, roast the whole garam masala and grated coconut. Roast until the spice turn aromat and grind to fine powder. Use only 3/4 tbsp of the spice. In the same pan roast the coconut until it becomes brown in colour, giving out the nutty fragrance. Upon cooling, combine the ground garam masala, coconut and add ½ cup water and find grind it to smooth paste.
  9. Soak the tamarind in ½ cup warm Slice the shallots, chop or crush the ginger and garlic. In a clay pot, heat oil, add in the ginger and garlic. Then add the sliced shallots and curry leaves, saute until the shallots turn golden brown. Now add the dry spices chilli powder, coriander powder, fenugreek powder and roast for a minute.
  10. Add to it the ground wet mixture and saute well. Add the tamarind with water, add ½ cup more water, add salt and allow it to boil for 3 - 4 minutes, until the gravy starts to become thick. Drop in the prawns and a sprig of curry leaves, stir well. Cover and cook on low flame for approximate 8 minute Prawns will release So you need to adjust the gravy consistency. If adding coconut pieces, thinly slice them and saute in 1 tbsp of oil on medium flame, until light golden brown.
  11. Finally stir it in the prepared prawns masala and cover with lid.

Serve it with Kerala brown Rice, Chapathy, Kerala Parota, or Appam.
