Adding Smoky Flavor to the fish
-
Take some pieces of charcoal in a metal cup or on a boat shape tin foil. Heat the charcoal until it turns white hot
Place the metal bowl over the marinated fish.
You can either use charcoal lighter fluid or hold the charcoal pieces with tongs in a flame till it heats up -
Add a few drops of oil or ghee on the charcoal. Place a lid on the fish bowl as soon as the charcoal starts to smoke
-
Let the fish marinate for 1 hr with the spices and the smoke
Cooking the Fish
-
Drizzle some oil on the fish
You can either pan fry the pieces or bake it in an oven or air fryer -
We will bake the fish. Preheat your oven to 375 degrees F or 190 degrees C. Place the fish on a baking tray with a wire rack
You can brush some oil on the wire rack so that the masala does not stick to the rack and clean up is also easy. -
Bake the fish for 5-7 min and then flip them. Bake them for another 5-7 min on the other side or until done
-
Make sure you flip the fish gently as some fish break easily.
