Qasoori Fried Fish

As winters are here, thought of sharing this easy recipe of fried fish!!

Ingredients:

Fish (Rahu)                                        1/3 kg
Salt                                                     1 & 1/2 tsp.
Red chili powder                                1 & 1/2 tsp.
Ginger garlic Paste                             2 tbsp.
White Cumin seeds                            1 tsp.
Whole Spice Powder                          1 & 1/2 tsp.
Chaat Masala                                      1 tsp.
Carom seeds (Ajwain)                        1 tbsp (Crushed)

Lemon                                                 3 tbsp.
Soya Sauce                                          2 tbsp.
Gram flour (Besan)                            1 cup
Eggs                                                    2 (beaten)
Oil                                                       For frying

Procedure:

Remove scales of the fish & wash with wheat flour to remove any smell. Cut fish into desired pieces.

Mix all of the above ingredients (except eggs & fish) and add some water in it to make a semi thick paste. Dip fish pieces in it & marinate for 4-5 hrs or overnight.

When ready to fry, mix the beaten eggs in the marinated fish properly. Heat oil on medium heat & pour the dipped fish pieces in oil. Wipe off any extra batter. Because a thick coating may prevent the fish from cooking properly!

Stir them around gradually and gently press them with the back of a flat spoon when half done. Take them out when they turn golden brown & fish is done. Make sure oil is not too hot, otherwise fish will remain raw. Drain on tissue or a paper and serve hot with ketchup or chutney ! :)

Before I have discussed the following varieties of fish:
