Ingredients

• 500 g Fish Fillets (firm white fish such as kingfish, pomfret or tilapia, cut into bite‑size pieces)
• 1 cup Quinoa (rinsed thoroughly)
• 2 cup Water (for cooking quinoa)
• 1/2 tsp Turmeric Powder (ground, for fish marination)
• 1 tsp Red Chili Powder (adjust to heat preference)
• 1 tsp Coriander Powder
• 1 tsp Salt (or to taste)
• 1 tbsp Lemon Juice (freshly squeezed)
• 1 tbsp Ginger‑Garlic Paste (homemade or store‑bought)
• 1/2 cup Rice Flour (for coating the fish; gluten‑free)
• 2 cup Oil (high smoke‑point oil such as sunflower or canola)
• 10 pieces Curry Leaves (optional, for extra aroma)
• 1 piece Green Chili (slit lengthwise, optional)

Instructions

1. Marinate the Fish

   In a mixing bowl combine fish pieces, turmeric, red chili powder, coriander powder, salt, lemon juice, and ginger‑garlic paste. Toss gently to coat all pieces. Let it rest for 15 minutes at room temperature.

   Time: PT15M

2. Coat the Fish

   Sprinkle rice flour over the marinated fish and toss lightly until each piece has a thin, even coating. Shake off excess flour.

   Time: PT5M

3. Heat the Oil

   Pour oil into the deep frying pan, enough to submerge the fish pieces (about 2 inches). Heat over medium‑high heat until a small piece of bread sizzles in 30 seconds (≈180°C).

   Time: PT5M

   Temperature: 180°C

4. Fry the Fish

   Carefully add fish pieces in batches, avoiding overcrowding. Fry for 3‑4 minutes per side until golden brown and the interior reaches 63°C. Remove with tongs and drain on a paper‑lined plate.

   Time: PT10M

   Temperature: 180°C

5. Cook Quinoa

   Rinse quinoa under cold water. In a saucepan combine quinoa and water (1:2 ratio), add a pinch of salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until water is absorbed and quinoa is fluffy.

   Time: PT15M

6. Finish & Serve

   Transfer fried fish to a serving platter, garnish with fresh curry leaves and slit green chili for color. Serve hot alongside the quinoa rice.

   Time: PT5M
