Chuva, also known as Paarai fish, is a firm-textured, flavourful fish ideal for spicy South Indian or Sri Lankan curries. Its bold taste makes it perfect for roasting, frying, or simmering in masalas. The flesh is thick and meaty, holding up well to long cooking without breaking apart. A favourite in coastal households for its satisfying bite.

It’s rich in protein, omega-3 fatty acids, and B vitamins that support heart and brain health. The fish’s flavour pairs well with garlic, pepper, and tamarind-based sauces. Ideal for hearty weekend meals or traditional non-veg feasts.

Store in the refrigerator and cook within 1–2 days. Clean and slice before marinating. Fry, grill, or curry as preferred.
