Fish Fry

This is one of  kind of keralian fish fry.  This kind of fry is made particularly with fish found in Estuaries, River , Lake.  I have taken black  pearl spot fish also known in kannada as keerimeen, in Konkani as kalara.This fish is found in Estuaries.

Ingredients required :

Pearl Spot : 1/2 Kg. cleaned, Put insertions.
Red chilli powder  :  3 tbsp.
Lemon                      :2.
Ginger Paste           :1/2 tsp.
Garlic Paste            : 1/2 tsp.
Coriander powder   : 1 tsp.
Coconut oil             : 6 tbsp.

1. Marinate fish with a tbsp of salt for 20 minutes.
2. Mix chilli powder, Ginger Garlic paste,coriander powder, Lemon juice together  and pinch of salt. Apply on fish after its marinated for 20 minutes. And leave for another 15 minutes.
3. Heat around 6 tbsp of coconut oil in tawa . Oil should not be boiling hot . Place the fish on tawa. Let it fry on medium heat for 5-6 minutes Slowly flip the fish on other side and again let it fry for another 5 minute. Frying takes time in this kind of fish fry. Be very careful while flipping the fish hot oil splatters.

Garnish with vegetable salad and serve with white rice and fish curry.
