Natholi Mulakittathu is a spicy, tangy Kerala-style anchovy curry made with small, tender anchovies (natholi) cooked in a rich red gravy of traditional Kerala spices. The curry features tomato, green chilies, crushed ginger and garlic, red chili powder, turmeric, tamarind water, curry leaves, and coriander — all brought together in coconut oil for that authentic coastal flavor.
