Fish Tawa Fry

🇮🇳 Indian

The seafood the shore eats: fish tawa fry, quick over fire and honest on the plate. About 35 minutes from fridge to table.

Prep 20 min Cook 15 min Serves 3 Medium

  • Saltto taste
  • Turmeric Powder1/2 tsp
  • Curry Leaves1 sprig
  • Lemon1
  • Fish450 g, steaks
  • Red Chili Powder2 tsp

  • Tamarind Paste1 tsp

Instructions

  1. 1

    Marinate the fish in the spices and lemon for 20 minutes.

  2. 2

    Coat in rice flour — a thin, honest layer, not a mask.

  3. 3

    Shallow-fry in coconut oil on medium until crusty and just done, 3-4 minutes a side.

  4. 4

    Serve with onion rings and lemon; the crunch is the whole argument.

Chef's tip

Fish is done when it flakes at a tilt — not when it looks impressive.
