Ingredients
  

  • 750 gms of fish/1 kg boneless fish pieces cut into medium size
  • 2-3 tablespoon ginger garlic paste
  • salt to taste
  • 2-3 tablespoon red chilli powder
  • 1 teaspoon turmeric powder
  • 2-3 tablespoon roasted coriander seeds powder
  • oil for shallow frying
  • 8-10 curry leaves
  • 7-8 vertically slit green chillies
  • 2 tablespoon lemon juice

Instructions
 

  • Firstly, wash the fish with salt and turmeric powder and water to get rid of the smell that comes from the fish.
  • Add ginger garlic paste to the fish.
  • Add salt, red chilli powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder and mix well.
  • Every fish piece should be mixed well with the masalas.
  • Marinate the fish mixture by refrigerating it well for about 15-20 minutes so that the masala gets absorbed well into the fish.
  • Add 2-3 tablespoon of oil in a pan and heat it, add 3-4 fish pieces and shallow fry each side for about 6-7 minutes on low flame until fish is fried well on both the sides.
  • Also add some curry leaves and slit green chillies onto them while frying.
  • Take fish pieces out from the pan and spread it on an absorbent paper.
  • Continue frying the rest of the pieces in the similar manner.
  • Garnish the fish with onions and sprinkle some lemon juice all over.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

1.In this recipe I have shallow fried the fish pieces but the same fish pieces can also be deep fried...
2.Fry the fish pieces on low to medium flame whether they are deep fried or shallow fried.
3.Fry for a longer time if it is shallow fried i.e for about 5-6 minutes on each side until both sides are cooked well and coated well with the masala.
4.Additional spices like garam masala powder too can be added while marinating the fish.
