Tuna Ularthiyathu – Kerala Style Tuna Roast

Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

Tasty and Healthy Tuna Ularthiyathu -Choora Meen Ularthiyathu -Kerala Style Tuna Roast all in one neat little package!

Lately, vegetarianism has grown in popularity. Have you ever thought about becoming vegetarian? I’ve thought about it several times and I took a resolution to become a vegetarian but then like everything else, some resolutions are just meant to be broken. No matter how hard I tried…The moment I see Mutton Biryani  I can’t resist my temptation 😉 my mind is always ready to jump in and take away my oath…poor me 🙁 However, I still hope that I will be able to turn to pure vegetarian someday.

Well, talking about today recipe if you are familiar with Kerala cuisine, then you might be aware that Kerala is known for its seafood delicacies. I must have told this story a hundred times… Yes I repeat, Fish has always been a staple diet for the non-vegetarian people of Kerala. Each household will have their own version of course. Tuna Fish-Choora meen is a super food. No doubt about it. They are great source of lean protein and packed with Omega-3 fatty acids and vitamins B.

You can prepare this Kerala Style sautéed Tuna with Spices -Choora Meen Ularthiyathu using fresh fish or canned tuna. For this recipe, I used fresh tuna and this is my MIL method of making Tuna ularthu-roast. I have already shared my mom’s version of Tuna Thoran-Stir Fry which is almost like this. Both recipes are easy to make and tastes as good as it looks.Lately we started eating balanced healthy variety to the diet which includes fish weekly twice, No points for guessing what I am about to say now. As you might have expected, yes, you will see many fish recipes in future updates. Hmmm, I hear you my veggie friends… don’t worry I have vegetarian dishes lined up too.:)

Stories apart, let’s get into today Tuna Ularthiyathu-Tuna Fish Roast Stir fry recipe. It goes well with rice or chapati or even you can make tuna stuffed sandwich. Enjoy!
