Description

This is a delicious masala tawa fish fry recipe! I will share a tip by which all the marinade will stick nicely to the fish and won’t come off while pan frying it!

Ingredients

Any fish of your choice…6 pieces

Lime juice (optional)
Chaat masala

Dry masala mix

1/4 tsp. turmeric powder

1 tsp. coriander powder
1 tsp. red chilli powder
1/4 tsp. pepper powder

1/4 tsp. garam masala powder
1/2 tsp. salt
Hing or Asafoetoda (a pinch)

Masala paste

Handful of coriander leaves
1 curry leaf sprig
1 green chilli

1 inch piece of ginger
3-4 garlic cloves
1 tbsp. fresh lime juice

1 tbsp. Oil

Instructions

If you don’t want the fish to smell too fishy, then squeeze some lime juice on it. This step is optional
Combine all the spices for the dry masala in a bowl

Grind all the ingredients for the wet masala mix
Coat the fish with the dry masala mix followed by the wet masala mix and marinate it for 30 min at least
Set a non-stick pan on medium heat and brush some oil to cover the base of the pan.

Pan fry the fish on both sides for ~3 min each. You can drizzle a little oil so the coating turns crisp
Sprinkle some chaat masala on the fish for some extra kick!

Notes

Blending the herbs and ginger/garlic with oil makes the fish fry more aromatic

Frying the fish in less oil prevents the marinade/masalas from coming off the fish
