Kadukka Fry (Kallummakai or Mussels Fry )

Ingredients

Mussels - 500 grams
Turmeric powder - 1 tablespoon

Clean mussels three to four times in water if you are buying it without the shell. In a bowl, add mussels, turmeric powder, red chilly powder and salt. Mix this well and keep it aside for 10-15 minutes. In a pan, add oil. Once the oil is hot, shallow fry the mussels. You can add onions for taste. This is really famous in Calicut, Kerala. It is also called Malabar Kadukka fry. In some places, mussels are also known as Kallumakai. Its an awesome dish and once tasted you will never stop having this. :) This is one of my favorite dish.
