Tandoori Fish



Tandoori Fish

This is a delicious,tangy and mildly spiced fish baked in the oven.You can use any fleshy fish fillet.I used tilapia because it is a delicate fish.Tuna and cat fish also works well for this recipe.This is the best recipe for those who do not like much  of fishy flavor. Tandoori marinade seems to reduce fishy odor but at the same time makes it soft, moist and tasty.


Ingredients
Golden promfet -1
Kashmiri chili powder- 3/4 tsp
Paprika- 3/4 tsp 
Ginger- garlic paste- 1 tsp
Gram flour- 2 tbs 
Garam Masala- 1/2 tsp
Yogurt (hung)- 3 tbs

Kasoori methi powder-a  pinch
Lemon juice- a few drops
Oil 3 tsp




To prepare the marinade heat 2 tsp of oil and add gram flour and roast it in a slow flame for about a minute till you get a nice flavor. Be very careful as it has a tendency to burn. The best way is to bring the pan to heat and then off heat and then again to heat and whisking continuously.Allow this to cool a bit. 
Mix all ingredients listed in the marinade along with the gram flour paste.
Clean fish and make small gashes and coat with the marinade and keep refrigerated for at least two hours . Preheat oven to 450 degree F. Grease baking tray with little oil and layer the fish and place in the oven and allow to cook in high temperature. After three minutes reduce heat to 300 degree F. Cook for 5 minutes and then turn around the fish( gently with a wide spatula.the fish will be  very tender at this stage) for another 5-6 minutes.

Serve with lemon wedges.


Try this...
Hope you will all enjoy..

Paal payasam/Palpayasam Happy Onam to all my friends and readers! Wish you all a very happy and prosperous Onam!!! Onam is finally here and no celebration is complete without a sweet dessert. I am sure no Malayali can think of a sadhya without a payasam. Pal payasam is definitely a star,my all time favorite :) This is a rich delicious payasam where the rice is cooked in milk till it attains a creamy texture. The milk gets reduced and the flavor and taste is very much  like palkova. It has very little ingredients, but it is time consuming and  needs a little patience to prepare this dessert. Here I have used basmathi rice but it is best if we use payasam ari (rice) or rose matta rice.Try this you will surely love it.
