Salmon Fry

Ingredients:-

Salmon fish - cut into pieces
Lemon juice  - 1/2 slice
Salt to taste
Cilantro/coriander leaves - 1/4 cup chopped finely
Mint leaves - 1/4 cup chopped finely
Curry leaves - 10 count chopped finely
Chili powder - 1/2 tbsp according to your spice levels
Turmeric powder - 1/4 tbsp
Ginger garlic paste - 1/2 tbsp
Fish masala - 1 tbsp (Any brand is fine. I used MDH  brand)
Curd/Yogurt - 1/2 cup (or 4 tbsp)


Method:-

Take a bowl add all the above ingredients excluding fish and mix them properly check the spice levels and salt. It should be in little bit higher level  in spices because we need to marinate the fish in that mixture so when  the fish sucks the juices in marination process it will be adjusted .

Now add the fish in that mixture and let it sit in that mixture for about 40 mins or an hour if you have time. And remember make sure you make the marination process in the refrigerator so the masala sits on the fish.

Now time to cook them. Take a wide pan and add 2 tbsp of oil and cook the fish in a low flame until its cooked both the sides and inside the fish. Serve it with rice or as an starters . It goes well in either way. Enjoy.
