Description
Nethili meen is known as Anchovy in english..its one of my fav fish..Seafood is a rich source of protein, vitamins, and minerals; many varieties of seafood are also low in sodium and cholesterol.Fish is also a good source of “B” Vitamins “B-6”, “B-12″, biotin and niacin. Vitamin A” is found mainly in fish liver oils, but some high fat fish are good sources of Vitamin “A”. Fish is a good source of several minerals, especially iron, phosphorus, potassium and zinc. Canned fish with edible bones, such as salmon or sardines, are also rich in calcium..Having fish twice r thrice in a week will give us sufficient vitamins, minerals..| Ingredients-1 | |
