This is a spicy dish that perfectly suits this cool climate. This will be an easy to make treat for spicy sea food lovers. I have added roasted coconut in this recipe. You can use coconut without roasting. Even without adding coconut this dish is real tasty. So health watchers and people who do not like coconut, can avoid coconut.
