Crispy Fish Fry

Instructions:

  1. Clean the Fish:
    Wash the fish fillets and pat them dry with a paper towel.
  2. Marinate:
    In a bowl, mix turmeric, chili powder, black pepper, garlic, salt, and lemon juice. Rub this mixture over the fish evenly. Let it marinate for 15–30 minutes.
  3. Coat the Fish:
    Mix the flour and cornflour on a plate. Dredge each fish fillet in the flour mixture until fully coated. Shake off excess.
  4. Heat Oil:
    In a frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. You need enough oil to shallow fry the fish.
  5. Fry the Fish:
    Carefully place the fish fillets in the hot oil. Fry 3–4 minutes on each side (depending on thickness) until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Drain and Serve:
    Remove the fish from the pan and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with lemon wedges, tartar sauce, or a side of salad or fries.

💡 Tips for Extra Crispy Fish:

  • Make sure the fish is dry before coating.
  • Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches.
  • Cornflour in the coating gives an extra crunch.
