Prepare the fish fillets by cleaning and patting them dry.

In a mixing bowl, combine gram flour, rice flour, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, cumin powder, coriander powder, lemon juice, and salt.

Add water gradually to form a smooth batter.

Incorporate carom seeds and finely chopped green chilies into the batter.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat until hot.

Dip each fish fillet into the batter, ensuring it's well coated.

Carefully place the coated fish into the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding.

Fry the fish until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes per side.

Remove the fried fish and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Garnish with fresh coriander and serve hot with lemon wedges and chutney.
