Netholi/Anchovy Fry

There has been lot of recipes lying in my draft.This nethili fry is one among them..I grew up eating fish almost every single day..Fish was inevitable in our house,mainly tuna ,sardines,mackeral,anchovy dominating the list.Chicken and other meat were something we used to have  only during eid or if some guests r visiting.Now the scenario has changed though because my husband is a chicken lover.

M not a big fan of nethili ;but the fact that its a fish helps me to have it.yesss..i am a fiiiiish lover..
