How to Make Fish fry recipe

• Pre-preparation:
• In a bowl, add all the marinade ingredients and mix well to make a paste.
• Coat the fish pieces with this paste and marinate for at least an hour.
• Heat the oil till it's hot.
• Slide 2 to 3 fish pieces in the first batch without overcrowding.
• Fry till crispy brown. The marinade has lemon juice and curd, so don't fry it for too long, or else it might overcook and be rubbery in texture.
• Remove and place on a kitchen towel or paper napkin.
• Repeat the process till all pieces are fried; set aside.
• In the same oil, add some finely sliced cabbage and onion and remove on an absorbing paper.
• Serve the cabbage and onion as a bed.
• Fry some curry leaves and garlic ensuring the garlic isn't burnt.
• Remove on an absorbing paper and sprinkle it on the fried fish as garnish.
• Place some lemon wedges and serve with accompaniment of your choice.
