Instructions
- Grind chopped onions, chopped tomatoes, ginger & garlic and few springs of coriander leaves into a fine paste.
- :- You can add a little water into the mixture to make it a loose paste. The consistency of the paste should be thin.
- Add the fish slices into the paste and marinate overnight or you can let it stand in the fridge for atleast 4 hours.
- Heat oil in a flat pan.
- Add the marinated fish one by one and cook until it becomes crisp on both sides.
- :- You can also deep fry the fish but if you want to use less oil in your fish you can just do the step I mentioned above. :- You can just dump some extra masala mixture on top of the fish while you fry.
