There are various ways to fry fish, and each one produces wonderful and incredibly tasty results. Here, I used thick fish slices, prepared a mixture with a few masalas, covered the fish in the paste, and shallow-fried them until they were thoroughly cooked.
The fish should be evenly and thickly covered in masala. To ensure that the spices and masalas are fully absorbed, this must marinade for at least 30 minutes. Simply cook the fish meat until it turns a dark brown colour in hot oil in a pan or kadhai
A simple masala flavours the fish brilliantly and the rice flour coating makes it crisp when after fried. A crunchy golden brown exterior and soft flavourful fish inside –

surving suggestion
It goes best with rice and dal/lentil dishes like tomato pappu (thick dal), sambar, rasam, and pappu charu.
Notes
- Marinate for at least 30 minutes.
- Once the fish touches the pan, be cautious not to touch it for a few minutes. This will guarantee that the masala sticks on the fish while it is being fried.
- Do not overcook the fish.
