Fish Podimas / Fish Burji / Scrambled Fish is an excellent side dish for rice. I generally serve this with steamed rice and Rasam. Its a lightly seasoned quick dish but tastes awesome. I generally make this whenever i make fish fry, with the idea of making my little one eat fish. Since we remove the fish bones and the skin of fish in this recipe, Kids find it very easy to have this dish. This recipe can also be made when there is some left over fish. We can either boil fish or fry fish then remove the bones or skin of the fish and scramble the fish and use in this recipe.. Here Goes the recipe…

Notes
- I have used fish fry for this recipe. Fish can also be boiled in water salt and turmeric powder.
- I have scrambled the egg separately and then added into the fish. Eggs can also be added directly into the fish and then scrambled. But this leaves a strong eggy flavor to the dish. If you like the eggy flavour then eggs can be directly add into fish.
- I have used sear fish for this recipe. Any fish can be used for this recipe.
