Spicy Crispy Fish Fry

1.Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

2.In a mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, coriander powder, garam masala, chili powder, turmeric powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well to create a spice blend.

3.Gradually add water to the spice blend, whisking until you achieve a smooth batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the fish but not too runny.

4.Dip each fish fillet into the batter, ensuring it is fully coated. Allow any excess batter to drip off.

5.Next, roll the battered fish fillets in breadcrumbs, pressing gently to ensure the breadcrumbs adhere well to the fish.

6.Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium-high heat. To test if the oil is hot enough, drop a small piece of batter into the oil; it should sizzle and rise to the surface.

7.Carefully place the breaded fish fillets into the hot oil, frying them in batches to avoid overcrowding. Fry for about 4-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.

8.Once cooked, remove the fish from the oil and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb excess oil.

9.Serve the spicy crispy fish fry hot, garnished with fresh cilantro and lemon wedges on the side.
