Fish Fry with Onions

Ingredients

1.5 lb Fish (Preferably Pomfret or Pompano), cut into small pieces
2 or 3 large onions, sliced
coconut oil to shallow fry the fish
a twig of curry leaves

To Marinate

3 tbsp chilli powder
1/2 tsp turmeric powder
1 1/2 tbsp ginger paste
1 1/2 tbsp garlic paste
1 tbsp rice powder
1 tbsp vinegar
1 tsp coconut oil
1 tsp mustard seeds
a twig of curry leaves
salt to taste

* The marinade mentioned above will be a little more than that is needed to marinate the fish. Because it will be used along with onions for frying.

Preparation

1. Grind all the ingredients mentioned in the to marinate section into a thick smooth paste.

2. Marinate the fish pieces for minimum 1 hour. (Marinate over night for better taste).

3. In a pan, heat coconut oil and shallow fry the fish until they turn brown in color. Keep the fried fish aside.

4. In the same oil, add the sliced onions and saute well. Once they become transparent, add the left over marinade to this, mix well and saute the onions until they turn brown in color.

5. At this stage, add curry leaves and fried fish to the fried onions and mix well without breaking the fish pieces.
