Sab Dried Linna 200g

Type: Premium sun-dried Mackerel (Linna Karawala), split and cleaned.

Texture & Flavor: Moderately firm and dense with a deeply rich, oily fish profile. It delivers an intense savory punch and a robust, salty umami depth that stands up exceptionally well to bold local spices.

Role: A popular, cost-effective dried fish variety used to anchor hearty family meals, acting as a deeply flavorful savory centerpiece that elevates simple rice and curry spreads.

Best Used For:

• Fiery Linna Karawala Mirisata (Spicy Curry): Simmering chunks in a deeply roasted, sour and spicy black curry base with plenty of chili powder, goraka (garcinia), and fenugreek to cut through the natural oiliness of the mackerel.

• Crispy Onion Stir-Fry (Baduma): Deep-frying small pieces until golden brown and crispy, then tossing them vigorously with plenty of sliced red onions, cracked green chillies, curry leaves, and a squeeze of fresh lime juice.

• Dhal and Vegetable Enhancer: Dropping a small piece into a simmering pot of red dhal (parippu) or a raw jackfruit (polos) curry to infuse the entire gravy with a rich, savory backbone.
