Tallyanche Suke Recipe - Sardine Dry

Step 1: To begin making the Tallyanche Suke Recipe, firstly remove and throw away the head and tail of Sardines

Step 2: Remove everything out from the belly, wash them thrice or four times using fresh water every time

Step 3: Apply a teaspoon of salt and keep it aside for 10 minutes

Step 4: In the meantime, crush the garlic and keep it aside

Step 5: Also crush the Sichuan Pepper for a few seconds to release the flavours

Step 6: Make sure that you don't have to make powder out of it

Step 7: The next step is to cook the Sardines

Step 8: In a medium saucepan, drop in the Sardines

Step 9: Add turmeric powder, red chilli powder, crushed ginger, slit green chilies, coconut and 1/4 cup water

Step 10: Mix it properly, cover with a lid and let it cook on medium heat for about 10 minutes

Step 11: After 10 minutes, remove the cover and check if the fish is cooked using a toothpick

Step 12: Once it is done, switch off the flame and add salt, dry kokum and crushed sichuan pepper

Step 13: Mix everything well by shaking the saucepan because at this point, sardines are cooked and delicate and if you mix with spoon or spatula too much, then they might release fish bones all over in the dish and mess it up

Step 14: Remove from heat and it is ready to be served

Step 15: Serve Tallyanche Suke as a side dish along with Goan Chana Ros and Steamed Rice for a delicious Goan meal
