Ingredients
For the Marinade
- Kingfish steaks: 6-8 pieces (cleaned and patted dry)
- Red chili powder: 2 teaspoons
- Turmeric powder: 1/2 teaspoon
- Coriander powder: 1 teaspoon
- Ginger-garlic paste: 1 tablespoon
- Lemon juice: 2 tablespoons
- Rice flour or semolina (for coating): 1/4 cup
- Salt: To taste
- Oil: For shallow frying
Instructions
Step 1: Marinating the Fish
- In a bowl, mix red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, ginger-garlic paste, lemon juice, and salt to form a thick marinade.
- Rub the marinade generously over the kingfish pieces, ensuring they are well coated.
- Let the fish marinate for at least 30 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Step 2: Coating the Fish
- Spread the rice flour or semolina on a plate.
- Lightly coat each marinated fish piece with the rice flour or semolina for a crispy texture.
Step 3: Frying the Fish
- Heat oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Ensure the oil is hot but not smoking.
- Place the coated fish pieces gently in the pan, without overcrowding.
- Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until the fish is golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the fish and place it on paper towels to drain any excess oil.
