Kada Fry

Kada is the Malayalam name of Quail.  Is a small sized bird, small as a little chick.  

This is a recipe which I try every time I go to Kerela.  Though it doesn’t have a special taste, everyone is eager to have it once. Try it; it tastes a little bit like chicken fry.

Quail - 4
Red chilli powder - 2 tsp
Turmeric powder -1/2 tsp
Pepper powder - 1 tsp
Garam masala powder - 1 tsp
