Onnini shruthi thaazhthi
Paaduka poonkuyile
Ennomal urakkamaai unartharuthe
ennomal urakkamai unartharuthe

Onnini thiri thazthoo shaarada nilave
En kannile kinaavukal kedutharuthe
Kannile kinaavukal kedutharuthe

Uchathil midikkale nee ente hridanthame
Swacha shaantham ennomal mayangidumbol
Ethrayo dooramennodoppam nadanna
Pada pathmangal tharalamaai ilavelkkumbol
Thaarattin anuyaathra nidra than padi vare
Thamara malar mizhi adayum vare

Raavum pakalum ina cherunna sandhyayude
Sauvarna niramolum ee mukham nokki
Kalathin kanikayamee oru janmathinte
Jaalakathiloodaparathaye nokki
Njanirikkumbol kevalaananda samudramen
Praananil ala thalli aarthidunnu

Lyrics : ONV Kurup
Music: Devarajan Master

ഒന്നിനി സ്രുതി താഴ്തി
പാടുക പൂങ്കുയിലെ
എന്നോമല്‍ ഉറക്കമായ്‌ ഉണര്‍ത്തരുതെ
എന്നോമല്‍ ഉറക്കമായ്‌ ഉണര്‍ത്തരുതെ

ഒന്നിനി തിരി താഴ്തു ശാരദനിലാവെ
ഈ കണ്ണിലെ കിനാവുകള്‍ കെടുത്തരുതെ
കണ്ണിലെ കിനാവുകള്‍ കെടുത്തരുതെ

ഉചത്തില്‍ മിടിയ്ക്കല്ലേ നീ എന്റെ ഹൃദന്തമെ
സ്വവ്ച ശാന്തം എന്നൊമല്‍ മയങ്ങിടുമ്പൊള്‍
എത്രയോ ദൂരമെന്നൊടൊപ്പം നടന്ന
പദ പത്മങ്ങള്‍ തരളമായീളവേല്‍ക്കുമ്പൊള്‍
താരാട്ടിന്‍ അനുയാത്ര നിദ്ര തന്‍ പടി വരെ
താമര മലര്‍ മിഴി അടയും വരെ

രാവും പകലും ഇണ ചേരുന്ന സന്ധ്യയുടെ
സൗവര്‍ണ നിറമൊലും ഈ മുഖം നോക്കി
കാലത്തിന്‍ കണികയാമീ ഒരു ജന്മത്തിന്റെ
ജാലകവാതിലൂടപാരതയെ നോക്കി
ഞാനിരിക്കുമ്പൊള്‍ കേവലാനന്ദ സമുദ്രമെന്‍
പ്രാണനില്‍ അല തല്ലി ആര്‍ത്തിടുന്നു

Angamaly Fish Curry

Below is the recipie for the traditional Angamaly Fish Curry. Am a big fan of this dish. I have prepared this dish several times but am not still able to prepare it like how my mother do. The below recipie is a modified version which i got from a friend.


Fish(King fish) - 1 Kilo

Coconut - 1 Full

Onion - 3 Pieces

Ginger - 50 Gram

Garlic - 50 Gram

Green Chili – 10 - 15 Pieces

Coriander Powder - 4 Tbsp

Red Chili Powder – 1 - 1/2 Tbsp

Turmeric - 1/2 Tbsp

Curry Leaves - 3 Stem

Mustard - 1 Teaspoon

Small Onion - 10 Pieces

Red Chili - 3 Pieces

Vinegar - 3 Tbsp

Salt to Taste


Note about Mango:
1 Kilo Mango (Medium Sized) - When Mango Is Peeled, Please Make Sure That The Flesh Doesn’t Contain Any Green Substance (Peel) Because it Spoils The Taste of the Curry. Mango Should Be Cut Into Finger Size.

Note About coconut:
Grind the coconut with 1/2 liter water to make natural coconut milk. Or use coconut milk powder if u doesn’t have real coconut, but in that case u wont get the real taste.

Preparation:
Take sliced onion, ginger (cut into 1 inch length), garlic (each sliced into 2-3 pieces), green chili (each sliced into 2-3 pieces), curry leaves ( 3 stems) in a cooking pan. Add salt and vinegar to it and Start mixing it with your hand. Mix it thoroughly. After sometime add coriander powder, red chili powder, turmeric powder, and oil into it and mix it. . After mixing add the mango pieces to it. Add a mix of water and coconut milk (3:1 proportion) to it so that the mixture just covers the ingredients (fish and mango). Cook it in medium flame. When it starts to boil put the fish in it and checks the salt. (u can add salt if necessary). After 10 minutes check whether the mango is cooked. If mango is cooked properly it means the fish is also ready. Now add the coconut milk into it. And boil it for few minutes. Now in a fry pan add oil and heat it & add some mustard, sauté the small onions, add the dried red chili , curry leaves etc. sauté all of them and just add them to the curry.

Yummy Angamaly fish curry ready.. Its very tasty with rice. :)

Note: The taste of the curry depends on the mango, and the quality of the coconut milk
