Karimeen, also known as Pearl Spot, is a prized freshwater fish popular in Kerala for its firm flesh and distinct flavour. It’s perfect for grilling, deep-frying, or making traditional Meen Pollichathu wrapped in banana leaf. With fewer bones and juicy meat, Karimeen is a favourite among seafood lovers. Its unique taste stands out even with minimal seasoning.

Rich in omega-3, protein, and essential minerals, it supports heart and muscle health. The fish holds shape well during cooking and is ideal for both dry and curry-style preparations. It pairs beautifully with coconut-based gravies or spicy tamarind sauce.

Keep refrigerated and cook within 1–2 days of delivery. Clean, marinate, and pan-fry or bake as needed. Serve with rice or appam.
