Method: Fish Manchurian Recipe
- Wash the fish and cut into cube sized pieces
- Add Soya sauce, ginger garlic paste, and pepper powder. Mix and marinate. Set aside for at least 30 mins.
- Add the sauces to a bowl and set aside.
- Heat a pan with oil for deep or shallow frying or preheat the oven and bake.
- Add 1 ½ tbsps. each of Corn flour and Plain flour, little salt and stir well. Sprinkle some water and mix to coat the fish with flour. The batter should not be runny. Fish has to be coated with a thin layer of batter
- Fry the fish pieces to golden on a medium flame. Drain these on an absorbent tissue.
- After you finish frying fish, drain the oil from the pan retaining 2 tbsps. oil in the same pan
- Add garlic and fry till it gets fragrant. Add capsicum, layered onions (white parts of spring onions) and fry on high flame for about 3 mins. Onions and capsicums should be crunchy (not overcooked) and not soft.
- Stir the sauce mix. When it bubbles, add fish. To make a gravy version, pour the cornflour mixture first. Allow it to thicken on a low flame, it gets done quickly. Then add the fish.
- Switch off the heat and stir well. For dry recipe, fry on high for 2 to 3 minutes
- Garnish with chopped spring onions
