  • Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
  • Asafoetida1/4 tsp
  • Fish450 g, steaks
  • Gram Flour1 cup
  • Ajwain1/4 tsp
  • Red Chili Powder1 tsp

  • Green Chili1, chopped
  • Fresh Cilantro2 tbsp
  • Chaat Masala1 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Whisk the besan, rice flour and spices with water into a thick, clinging batter — it should coat the back of a spoon.

  2. 2

    Fold in the fish so every piece is covered; rest 10 minutes.

  3. 3

    Drop into medium-hot oil in small clusters and fry until the edges ruffle and turn deep gold.

  4. 4

    Fry once more on higher heat for 20 seconds if you like them extra crisp.

  5. 5

    Drain, dust with chaat masala and eat immediately — fritters have no tomorrow.

Chef's tip

One test fritter first; adjust salt and thickness before the whole batch.
