Fish (Tuna) Pickle

Kerala Fish Pickle — Tuna Meen Achaar

The catch that brings the heat.

Whole tuna, slow-cooked until it flakes into a fiery, hand-crushed spice mix — the meen achaar that makes a plate of kanji feel like a coastal Sunday lunch. Handmade in small batches in Kerala.

Heat: 🌶️🌶️🌶️ / 5

New to Kerala pickles? This one sits in the middle of our range. Start with our SweetFire Chilli or Lemon Dates if you'd rather ease in.

The taste

Hot, aromatic and deep — smoky chilli heat over the savoury richness of real fish, the spice melting into the oil for that just-one-more-spoon pull.

Made to be gifted

Shelf-stable until opened and built to travel — a taste of the Malabar coast most of India has never tried.

Eat it with

Hot rice and ghee · kappa (tapioca) · curd rice · biryani.

Pair it with the Prawns Pickle for the full coastal spread.

A note on our seafood: During the monsoon trawling ban, and because we use only fresh-caught seafood rather than frozen stock, the catch varies through the year. You may notice slight differences in flavour, colour or texture from one batch to the next. That isn't a fault — it's the honest result of real, seasonal seafood, handmade in small batches.
