Meen Pachakkurumulaku Cherthu Pollichathu / Fish Roasted Using Green Pepper Corns

Meen pollichathu , may be every non vegetarian's delight, which has got a top place in the five star menu. Fish marinated in a spicy, tangy, thick masala, wrapped in banana leaf and placed in greased earthern wares (manchatty) and cooked in that. There are lots of different recipes for making meen pollichathu, some says to fry fish slightly on both sides before wrapping banana leaves. I tried to make it using the recipes collected from magazines, especially with green pepper corns, which are so spicy. I haven't used banana leaves for making this and shallow fried it using very little oil.
