Cut fish fillets into bite-sized pieces.

In a bowl, combine chickpea flour, rice flour, red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, garam masala, and salt.

Add lemon juice and ginger-garlic paste to the dry ingredients.

Gradually add water to form a thick batter.

Mix in chopped fresh coriander, finely chopped onion, and green chilies.

Heat oil in a deep frying pan over medium heat.

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

Carefully place the battered fish into the hot oil.

Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

Remove and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.

Serve hot with chutney or sauce of choice.
