To all the seafood lovers ,here is one of the best recipes to try next - Grilled Masala Fish / Masala Fried Fish (Pomfret).
Its very easy recipe,just under 30 mins and tastes amazing with rice or just as it is.
The best part of this recipe is it requires some basic readily available ingredients and you can make a wonderful dish with it.

Finally heat a grilling pan or even a plain griddle if you don't have a grilling plate,apply little oil to it and grill or cook the fish along with masala till done.
To get that lovely red color always use Red Chili Powder which is milder in spice level but gives vibrant red colors to dishes like Kashmiri Red Chili Powder or Deggi Mirch Powder.

    1. I LOVE grilled Pomfret! This is the first recipe I've seen and I'm definitely going to try this. I usually just order it at a local restaurant. Can you use any kind of fish?
