Unakkameen podi is the mixture of fried dry fish and shredded coconut, which is blended to form a chutney powder. It is also called by the name unakkameen chammanthi. You can use any kind of dry fish for this recipe. I had used dry shark since it was easily available in my place. This dish can be easily prepared and is one of the best side dish for rice gruel or rice porridge.
Dry fish pieces are first soaked in water to remove the excess salt in them. They are then marinated and fried. Coarse them in a mixer along with shallots and dry red chillies. Now add grated coconut and blend once again. This coconut and dry fish mixture are then cooked in hot oil for few minutes. I can say that, this is an amazing side dish for rice. Do try the recipe at your home also.
