Ingredients

  • 500 g Fish Cod
  • 1 tbsp Coriander Seeds
  • 1 tsp Salt
  • 1 tsp Crushed Chillies
  • 1 tsp Chilli Powder
  • 1 tsp Turmeric Powder Haldi
  • 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  • 1 tsp Garam Masala
  • 2 tsp Garlic Paste
  • 1 tbsp Gram Flour Besan
  • 1 tsp Dried Fenugreek Leaves Methi
  • 1 tbsp Olive Oil

Instructions

  • Chop the fish into small pieces then pat dry thoroughly to ensure that the fish will be crispy
  • Add the rest of the ingredients into a bowl and mix until well combined
  • Add the fish into the mixture and spread all over the fish
  • Heat a pan with oil for deep frying until medium-hot ensuring that the oil is not too hot – to test this you can add a drop of the masala into the pan, and it should rise with tiny bubbles surrounding it
  • Add the fish into the pan – there should be tiny bubbles surrounding them – and allow them to cook undisturbed for 5 minutes until golden brown before flipping and allowing to cook for another 5 minutes until golden brown on the other side
  • Serve as a starter or as a main with salad and plain naan bread!

Thank you for trying my Masala Fish recipe! I’m glad you enjoyed it. A salad and rice sound like perfect accompaniments. 😊
