Tisrya Masala: The Spicy Clam Curry

Tisrya Masala is a mouthwatering clam curry that seafood lovers have to taste. It is prepared by cooking fresh clams in a rich, coconut-based sauce featuring various traditional Konkan spices which make it even more flavorful. The dish tastes good because of its flavoursome curry absorbed by the clams when they are cooked. Offering the best among other seafood from Konkan, this dish is accompanied by either bhakri or plain rice.
