Fish Mango Curry is a flavorful South Indian dish that combines the tanginess of raw mango with the richness of coconut milk, creating a perfect balance of flavors. This coastal favorite, especially popular in Kerala, features tilapia simmered in a fragrant gravy infused with garlic, ginger, shallots, curry leaves, and green chilies. The dish gets its vibrant color from Kashmiri chili powder and coriander powder, while raw mango slices add a refreshing tartness that complements the creamy coconut milk. 

Cooking Alleppey or Meen Manga curry in a clay pot enhances the depth of flavor, making the curry even more aromatic. As the fish gently cooks, it absorbs the spices, resulting in a tender, flavorful dish best enjoyed with steamed rice or appam. A final drizzle of coconut oil and fresh curry leaves adds an irresistible finishing touch, making this an ideal recipe for seafood lovers craving bold, tropical flavors.
