THE Famous Recheado Masala from GOa
Recheado masala also known as raechad masala is a fiery and tangy paste that is used to marinate fish. It has a variety of spices and a rich red color. Made with chilies, spices, and vinegar.

If you've been to Goa, you've probably had a fish dish made with this masala. Spicy with a zing of lemon. Just as we East-Indian pride on own bottle masala recipe, every Goan family will have their own recipe for raechad masala.
