Anchovies Fish Fry

Description

These are some yummy Anchovies fish fry that can be had as a starter or as a side dish with curd-rice, sambar-rice or dal-chawal. I marinated it in some green chili paste, ginger-garlic paste, rice flour and other basic seasonings. These crispy small bites tastes just awesome when had hot right out of the pan with some green chutney.
