Rava Pomfret Fish Fry (Mangalorean Style)

Ingredients

• 4 Pomfret, Whole Fish, cleaned
• 3 tablespoons Meet Mirsang
• 1/2 cup Rava, or Semolina
• 3 to 4 tablespoons Coconut Oil for Frying, See Note 1
• Salt
• 3 tablespoons Chili Powder, Red (I recommend Kashmiri Red)
• 3/4 tablespoon Cumin, Roasted Powder
• 1/4 teaspoon Turmeric, Powder
• 3/4 teaspoon Salt
• 5 tablespoons Vinegar

Steps

1. If you don’t have meet mirsang, mix together all the ingredients listed above for it.
2. Rub meet mirsang marinade and salt all over the fish and set aside for 10 minutes. Making slits in the fish before marinating helps the masala penetrate inside so it’s highly recommended.
3. Take rava or semolina in a flat dish and dip each fish in it. Use your hands to sprinkle it on the fish, till it’s crusted well on each side.
4. Heat oil in a pan and shallow fry the fish for eight to ten minutes on both sides.
5. Serve hot.
