Shredded Fish Curry

This fish curry i used to eat at my friend's (bindiya) place since my school days. We have been friends since 5th grade and till date we have been friends. She is a good cook too, she cooks a variety of dishes.
I got the recipe from her yesterday and i had to make it. To my surprise it came out just like how it was done at her place. A very simple and yummy recipe. It can be eaten with rice and it is a wonderful dish. Thanks to my friend i got a lot of yummy dishes to eat. During our college days i used to go to her house regularly and have lunch with her, her parents and all her family members are very loving and adorable.
