Fish Shashlik Sticks

Shashlik (shashlyk) is actually a mongolian dish. Shashlik was originally marinated cubes of grilled lamb or beef, but people of different areas changed it depending on local, taste and religious preferences. It is also a form of Shish Kabab popular in India and other Asian countries.

It has high protein contents like meat and vegetables which make it even more healthier. And if grilled, it has very little fatthat is  in the form of oil.

Today I am going to alter bit of the original recipe, and use fish instead of beef. This recipe is just soo yumm n perfect that u will never regret making it. Extremely delicious and mouth drooling.

In this recipe, simply the boneless fish and veggies have been marinated and then shallow fried :) Perfect as a snack for winters

Note: Never marinate in an aluminium pot, because meat absorbs the aluminium oxide from the pot that can b toxic.
