Overburnt-not an exemplary photo for a bachelor!! |
My brother said he dreamt of fish…eeks! But he did…fried fish. In his hermetic life in NZ as a student he was painfully deprived of this pleasure. This recipe goes out to him and the other bachelor. You think of the stink and mess and recoil from it. Well frozen fish that’s sliced and whisked off the shelf can hardly pose a likely threat but if at all put the fish in a pan and throw some salt and vinegar with a lil water. Let the fellows get cleansed of the forbidden stink. Drain out the water and let stand for a while to avoid excessive sizzle in oil.
Fried Fish
Boneless fish (any)-4 slices
Ginger-garlic paste or crushed ginger and garlic-1-11/2 tbsp
Salt-1/2 tsp
Turmeric powder-a pinch or two
Pepper powder-1/2 tsp
Oil-1 tbsp
Make a paste of this and dab evenly on the fish slices. Let the marinade be for 10-15 mins or even less if you’re in a hurry. Pour very lil oil in a skillet and fry them lightly or as per your choice. flavour with lemon juice as desired. dont be discouraged by the bland masala. ginger/garlic-pepper-salt-lemon is one of the most honest and fresh combinations...the tastes play a wonderful foil to each other here.

Hey G, I missed you! Your bro in NZ huh? Cool! Mine in Australia- he went there as a student too and he's always craving for homemade food, poor guy. Sometimes he gives me a buzz for recipe ideas :))
So, how was your break? I hope you had a fabulous time back home. Have you relocated to Goa?
You remimded me of this again and I terribly feel like having it now!! Ohh I must somehow control my craving till weekend :-) Nice pic!!

butterfly: hehe i like to wind up people, mind you, so keep craving! ask my husband...he's the best judge! you really like the pic? i thot it's a lil gross ;P but cant help my Emergency photo shoots!
Wow...ooty...umm actually, it was a beautiful place wen i went years years back...good luck! I hope u like winters =)by the way...I like the pictures but am not at all a fish person...and just dont let the light fall so directly on the food..it makes it too bright and the colors wont be vivid...u have seen those white shades they use in studios right...use a white translucent cloth to get the same effect. :)
Hey, u know what? I love my fish fry overdone :) no, really! It has to have that almost-burnt crispy texture on the outside and only then will I have it :D So yes, ur fish fry is pretty good for me!
