Masala Fish Fry Ingredients

• fish – I have used pomfret fish, you can use any fish of your choice.
• Marinade – Marinate the fish with curd, turmeric powder, red chilli powder, salt and coriander powder
• Masala Paste – A special spice paste is made using coriander seeds, fennel seeds, black pepper, cinnamon, cloves, shallots, garlic

How to make Masala Fish Fry step by step

1. Grind the ingredients listed under ‘To grind’ to a coarse paste without adding water (the onion will release the water on its own anyway). Clean the fish, wash well and keep aside. In a mixing bowl, add turmeric, chilli, coriander powder, curd and salt as required along with the fish and grind the spices.

2. Marinate for at least 1 hour, keep aside. Heat the dosa pan and add the fish pieces, sprinkle oil and fry until golden brown. You can also deep fry the fish pieces.

Serve with freshly cut lemon slices and onion rings. It tastes best with hot boiled rice.

Expert Tips

• Use an iron pan or non-stick pan to toast the fish as it contains seasoning which sticks to the pan. Otherwise you can also deep fry them.
• It is a little spicy so reduce the chilli powder as per your spice level.
• If you don’t like more spice flavor then omit the cinnamon and cloves.
• I have used Wawal (pomfret) fish variety. You can also use vanjaram fish.

serving and storage

Fish fry tastes great with raw onion and a slice of lemon. You can marinate fish pieces and freeze them for about a month. Melt it, then fry it and serve it hot!
