The marinade and masala paste require 3 to 4 whole cleaned mackerel Bangda fish, ginger-garlic paste, Kashmiri chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, black pepper powder, tamarind juice, coconut oil, curry leaves, and salt to taste.
You can let the fish marinate at room temperature for 30 to 45 minutes, or you can choose to fry it after just 5 minutes.
Place a tawa on medium flame, add coconut oil with fresh curry leaves, and cook the marinated fish on medium-low heat for 3 to 4 minutes until crispy and dark golden. Carefully flip the fish, drizzle extra coconut oil around the edges, and cook the other side for another 3 to 4 minutes.
