Cooking Tips

• Ensure the fish fillets are completely dry before marinating to prevent the masala from becoming watery.
• You can adjust the spice level according to your preference by increasing or decreasing the amount of red chili powder.
• For a healthier version, you can also bake the marinated fish fillets in the oven instead of deep-frying them.

Storage and Serving

• Fish fry masala is best served hot and fresh.
• Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
• To reheat, place the fish fillets in a preheated oven at 350°F (175°C) for about 10 minutes or until heated through.
