About Fish pulusu

Fish Pulusu is a traditional South Indian dish, particularly popular in Telugu cuisine, known for its tangy and flavorful taste. This dish features fish simmered in a tamarind-based broth enriched with spices like turmeric, red chili powder, cumin, and coriander. Fresh curry leaves, green chilies, garlic, and onions are commonly added to enhance the aroma and depth of flavor. Packed with protein and healthy omega-3 fatty acids from the fish, Fish Pulusu supports heart health and muscle repair. The inclusion of turmeric also provides anti-inflammatory benefits. However, the dish can be moderately high in sodium and spiciness, depending on preparation, so individuals sensitive to these may prefer adjusting the ingredients. Typically enjoyed with steamed rice, Fish Pulusu is a wholesome, nutrient-packed meal that reflects the vibrant culinary heritage of South India.
