Tawa Fish | Pan-Fried Fish || How to make Tawa Fish recipe with step-by-step photos 

Tawa Fish is a delicious, flavored shallow-fried seafood meal that is prepared with a few basic spices and herbs and then cooked on a flat pan/skillet. An easy recipe goes well with naan, chapattis, and chutney.   

It is a delight of the rainy/winter season and is served at every eating place. Now you can prepare this amazing recipe at home.

Mainly to make Tawa Fish you require fish fillets, but here I made Tawa fish with small-size of Anushka fish, which I like more than other fish, this small fish is full of flavor and juicy white large/giant fish becomes so dry and tasteless after cooking, so I always prefer to buy this delicious small fish to cook.

                       

To prepare Tawa fish marinade fish with ginger garlic paste and gram masala then separately fish batter is prepared by mixing spices, gram flour, egg, ginger garlic paste, lemon juice, and coriander leaves to give it an ultimate spicy, tangy, and strong taste. Tawa Fish recipe is usually made by roadside vendors and highway restaurants in the open-air  

For the best result follow my detailed step-by-step photo instructions and tips

                         

Recipe notes:

1. Fish: either use fish fillet or small fish but buy always fresh fish, avoid buying stale fish, as it contains a stinky and bad taste  
2. Skillet/pan: using a non-stick pan/skillet will make your fish cooking easy while an iron or another type of utensil may your fish stick from the bottom
3. Fish rinse: the most important part of fish cooking is to rinse them thoroughly until the smell goes away. To it simply apply some flour over the fish and leave it to for 10 minutes then wash it carefully under running water as fish meat is so delicate and easily can be shredded. A, also you can check out my easy fried fish which I have shown the method of fish rinsing.
4. Marination: marinade the fish and resting is the key to delicious and juicy fish, though marination time is not so long even then marination fish with rest is an essential part of making Tawa fish or any type of fish     
5. Frying fish: Maintaining the heat of the stove is also so important since Tawa fish is cooked on a flat pan with a little oil by covering it so that all spices that are applied to the fish are cooked properly on all sides so don’t turn the flame high, the best heat is moderately flame to cook Tawa fish
6. Spices: I used all basic powder spices with lemon and herb except carom as these seeds make me acidic in my stomach so I have to skip but you can add them in making batter this spice helps to digest the food
