1

Begin by cleaning and patting dry the fish fillets.

2

On a plate, combine a medley of vibrant spices including red chili powder, turmeric powder, coriander powder, garam masala powder, and salt. Enhance the flavor with ginger-garlic paste, a splash of lemon juice, 1 tablespoon of oil, and a generous sprinkle of fresh coriander leaves and mix them well.

3

Gently coat the fish fillets with the marination, ensuring an even and generous coating.

4

Let marinated fish rest for 30 minutes.

5

Heat coconut oil in a pan for frying. Once hot, carefully place the coated fish fillets into the oil. Fry until golden brown and crispy on both sides. Ensure the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

6

Remove from the pan and place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
