How To Make: Yellowtail Scad Fish Fry with Salad

Ingredients

2 tbsp Kashmiri chilli powder (see note)
1 tbsp semolina
1 tsp fish masala powder (see note)
2 tsp ground coriander
½ tsp ground turmeric
½ tsp finely ground black pepper
8 whole yellowtail scad or sardines, cleaned
40 gm coconut oil
2 sprigs curry leaves
To serve: naan and lime wedges (optional)
2 Lebanese cucumbers, coarsely chopped
1 apple cucumber, peeled, coarsely chopped
½ iceberg lettuce, cut into thin wedges
½ cup (loosely packed) coriander, torn
2 spring onions, thinly sliced
1 tsp cumin seeds
Juice of 2 limes
1½ tbsp grapeseed oil

Steps

Combine chilli, semolina, fish masala powder, coriander, turmeric and pepper in a small bowl, and season to taste. Rub into fish and set aside.
For cucumber and iceberg salad, combine cucumber, iceberg, coriander and spring onions in a bowl. Dry-roast cumin seeds in a small frying pan until fragrant (30 seconds). Transfer to a mortar and pestle and coarsely crush, transfer to a bowl and whisk in lime juice and oil, season to taste and toss with cucumber mix.
Heat coconut oil in a large, deep-sided frying pan, add some curry leaves, then fry fish in batches, turning once, until golden and crisp (3-5 minutes). Wipe out pan with absorbent paper and repeat with remaining fish and curry leaves. Serve hot with cucumber and iceberg salad and lime wedges.
