Fish Fry

Recipe 1:

This a typical Mangalorean Recipe:

Ingredients:

Chilli Powder

Turmeric Powder

Salt

When you are done with cutting and cleaning, mix all the above mentioned ingredients into a coarse paste. Rub this masala all over the fish inside out. Let it absorb for 15-30 minutes. You can try out a deep fry or a thava fry. You can roll the marinated fishes in rava (bombay rava) to make a rava fry.

Note:

Let the mixture remain thick. Do not make it watery.

It's always a good practice to make horizontal slits on the surface of a fish, so that it absorbs masala.
You can also add maida /corn flour to the mixture to make it thick and a drop of vinegar.
Marinate and leave it for an hour or more. Thus, it absorbs the masala and gives you a better taste.

My experiments with the above recipe as a base:

You can try out a deep fry or a thava fry. You can roll the marinated fishes in rava (bombay rava) to make a rava fry.




Review:
I tried several fish fry masalas earlier, but was not very happy, as they took away the real taste of the fish. These masalas were more like manchurian masalas. This time, I decided to try Aachi Fish Fry Masala. It turned out to be good, like a typical fish fry masala. In the instructions, they have mentioned that you can add lemon juice. Instead, I added a drop of vinegar and added water to make a masala. Marinate fish slices and leave it for hours. The more the number of hours of marination, the better the taste. Everyone in the family liked the taste.So, a big Yes for Aachi.
