What is Maasi??

For those who dont know, maasi is a cured/dried tuna which is available in market and looks like a log of wood.


If the maasi has humidity in it, dry it in sun and grind it to fine powdered form by adding 4 red chillies per 100 gm. 




It is also readily available in some places in powdered form (especially in Thoothukudi where it is famous) either with or without red chillies
