Choora is the Malayalam word for Tuna.

The pictures below show the fresh 2-kilo Tuna fish being prepared for making Choora Achar for me. Choora Achar is my most favorite Achar coming from Allepey, Kerala, India, not only because Tuna is fresh and delicious, but more so because it was cooked for me with love by my second family in Allepey. Grandmother cut the Choora, her special way and Aunt Lily and Gracy cooked it for me with TLC

I will never forget these three (3) wonderful cooks from Allepey.

Gracy showing me the Choora which she bought fresh from a nearby Fish Stall in Allepey.
