Sarah,
Tuna kovakaya ulathiyathu is very nice.
Am I right to say the tindoora looks kinda like a cucumber? What does it taste like? I have seen it in the Indian grocery store but did not know how to cook it.
This dish looks appetizing.

Interesting Tuna recipe. Now, I have to hunt for Kudampuli....maybe check out little India at downtown Kuala Lumpur! LOL!
Tuna with tindora sounds very different and unusual. Huge fan of kerela food for having grown up in the borders of kerela . Was happy to find many of my favourite recipes here!. Following u.

@ Swapna..you can use any fish instead of tuna.i used it just because its handy here..if you are using other fish , be sure to cook it a bit more time.

Different recipe looks gr8!!
kidu pic and lovely combo...bharani made me so nostalgic :D
hmm, this looks tasty, and i've got plenty of canned tuna in the house, but i'm unfamiliar with kovakka/tindoora and kudampuli. i've never even heard of those before. This sure seems easy to make though.
Sounds like a terrific dish with tuna!
This looks like a terrific combination of flavors!
