Ingredients
-
Any river fish fillets 750 gm
-
Chili powder 2-3 tsp
-
Turmeric powder 1/2 tsp
-
Salt to taste
-
Juice of one small lemon
-
Green chilies, slit, 8-10
-
Curry leaves 2-3 sprigs
-
Garam masala powder

Fresh coriander leaves, washed and finely chopped, 2 bunches

Oil to shallow fry
Method:
Clean and wash the fish fillets. Add the turmeric powder, chili powder, salt to taste, and lemon juice to the fish fillets and toss thoroughly. Set aside for a minimum of one-half hour preferably in the refrigerator.
Heat a pan (tawa) on medium heat. Add three to four tablespoons of oil. Add a few of the curry leaves. Add three to four fish fillets and cook on medium heat till crisp. Add one or two of the slit green chilies. Flip and cook on the other side till crisp. Sprinkle a pinch of the garam masala and a few chopped coriander leaves and cook for a few more seconds. Drain and transfer onto an absorbent paper along with the curry leaves and green chilies. Repeat the process for the remaining fish fillets. Serve hot garnished with onion rings and lemon wedges.
Looks yum.. I am more of a salt water fish fan (seafood and backwater fishes) rather than river fish. But I could definitely use the recipe.
It was delicious Ajith. Yes I too prefer seafood but not really much available in Hyderabad. Enjoy that very much whenever I visit Vizag. Still this is much better than nothing and my wife is a very good food.
i am going to try your recipe…i love fish
It will be good Prasanna. I'm not much of a fish curry lover but I do like it fried.
i looooove fish…………..chalo try karke dekhe……….
I’m sure you will enjoy it.
I am a seafood lover I will definitely try this type of receipe instead of fish fry with rawa or curry.
