Nethili in Tamil and Commersons Anchovy in English, is one of the most tasty fish variety. I love Nethili fry and it is a simple spicy dry fish fry. It is prepared by deep frying the spicy mixture. When cooked it tastes heavenly and goes very well with onion sambar rice and hot rasam rice. This is a spicy recipe and you will definitely become a great fan of it, if you are a Non- Veggie…!
