Shark(sura) hash is an authentic side dish prepared mostly by all South Indian peoples, each n everyone prepare these fish hash in their own special way, i was bored of eating them as side dish often n wish to prepare them as gravy as my taste buds need those hash a bit spicy, so tried them to prepare them as usual kuzhambhu but a bit differently..they turned out awesome, usually fish kuzhambus will tastes awesome after a day, for this dish, after an hour the gravy was delicious..excellent with papads...
