Fried Indian Mackerel #mycookbook step by step

1. If frozen, first thaw the mackerels..
2. Gut the fish well and wash it by mixing salt in the water. (This helps you to get rid of the fishy smell).
3. If you want to, you can keep the head. You can start marinating the fish now. I preferred chopping them into smaller pieces..
4. In a large bowl, add in all the powder spices and salt well as the ginger garlic paste. Mix everything well using vinegar. DO NOT USE WATER. VINEGAR GIVES ALL THE TASTE. Make sure the fish is coated very well..
5. Let the fish marinate for 45-60 minutes..
6. In a frying pan, heat some oil for shallow frying. (my oil looks dirty coz I fried fish In it few hours back. This is the second batch. Just ignore it.😉).
7. After about 45-60 minutes, coat the fish well into the corn flour-sooji mixture.
8. Drop it very carefully into the heated oil..
9. Flip and cook till both sides are dark and the fish is fully tender and cooked..
10. Garnish with cilantro leaves and chopped onions.
11. Can be served with fish curry-rice or even as a snack with beers 🍺😉.
12. Enjoy 😉👍🏻.
