First time i tried this recipe from my cousin’s cook book. That was actually 3 years before. Now i slightly modified the recipe. This green fish fry is crispy, spicy and delicious. Coriander and mint gives more flavour and it just lifts you..

INGREDIENTS:

2 pomfret

Semolina to sprinkle (slightly roasted)

To Grind:

1 bunch fresh cilantro (coriander leaves)

6 to 7 pudina leaves (mint)

3 to 4 garlic cloves

¼ lemon sized ginger

5 to 6 green chillies

1 teaspoon cumin seeds

2 tablespoons grated fresh coconut

½ teaspoon turmeric powder

Salt to taste

INSTRUCTIONS:

Combine all the ingredients given in “to grind” in to a processor and blend until smooth. Just sprinkle some water if needed. Don’t add too much water.

Apply this masala well to both the sides of fish. Freeze it for 20 min.

Pre heat the pan and add oil enough to fry.

Sprinkle semolina on one side of the fish and keep this side on the oil. Now sprinkle semolina on the side facing upwards.

Shallow fry from both sides until crisp and golden brown in color.

Garnish and Serve hot.
