Spicy Fish Vindaloo is a recipe I got from my Mum’s collection of recipes, painstakingly written down  when she went for cookery classes soon after her graduation.  I was frantically copying every thing down as we were leaving Bangalore for Malaysia.  Soon after I was going through my recipe book and came across this one.  The best joke is that when I made it for my Mum she said, ” this is a nice.  Could you give me the recipe?!!!”  That being said, let me get on with the recipe for Spicy Fish Vindaloo.
