By Poonam Kunkolikar

Muddoshi or LadyFish is a clean water fish and is extraordinarily tasty. 

It is convenient to smooth this fish. It is very refined and it’s meat is whitish in colour. Apart from making Muddoshi fish curry/hooman with this, you can additionally fry this fish with rava. I choose rava fried fish as it is easy to cook. We Goans, strive specific kinds of dishes with fish and fish fry is one of them. A regular fish thali/plate in Goan houses will constantly have atleast one piece of fried fish alongside with rice, fish curry, sukha(dry) fish curry,salad and kadi. 

You can discover a range of fish recipes on my blog.
