Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 pieces Hilsha fish (slices)
- 1 teaspoon Turmeric powder
- 1 teaspoon Red chili powder
- 2 tablespoons Coconut flour
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 4 tablespoons Coconut oil
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 2 tablespoons Fresh coriander (chopped)
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
Rinse the Hilsha fish slices under cold water and pat dry with a paper towel.
In a bowl, mix turmeric powder, red chili powder, salt, garlic powder, and black pepper. Rub this spice mix onto the fish slices evenly and let it marinate for 10 minutes.
Spread the coconut flour on a plate. Coat each marinated fish slice with the coconut flour to form a light crust.
Heat coconut oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Once hot, gently place the fish slices into the skillet.
Fry the fish slices for about 4-5 minutes on each side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the pan and fry in batches if necessary.
Remove the fish from the skillet and place on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Drizzle lemon juice over the fried fish for a zingy flavor.
Garnish with freshly chopped coriander before serving.
Serve the Paleo Hilsha Fry hot with a side of salad or steamed vegetables for a complete meal.
