Shark Curry, popularly known as 'Mori Curry' in Goa and Konkan, is a robust and highly nutritious seafood dish. This recipe features chunks of firm baby shark meat cooked in a spicy and tangy coconut-based gravy enriched with 'Triphal' (Sichuan pepper). The meat of the shark has a unique texture that absorbs the bold flavors of red chilies and tamarind without breaking apart. Its taste is intensely savory with a characteristic pungency that makes it a favorite among seafood connoisseurs. This curry is a celebrated coastal specialty, traditionally served with steamed rice or thick rice bhakris.
