Clean and prepare the fish, removing scales and guts.

Marinate the fish with lime juice, salt, black pepper, and garlic for at least 30 minutes.

Mix flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl.

Gradually add water to the flour mixture, stirring until a dough forms.

Knead the dough on a floured surface until smooth, about 5 minutes.

Divide the dough into small balls and flatten them into discs.

Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until shimmering.

Fry the dough discs until golden brown on both sides, about 2-3 minutes each.

Remove the fried bread from the skillet and drain on paper towels.

In the same skillet, fry the marinated fish until cooked through and golden, about 5-7 minutes per side.

Assemble the fish in the fried bread with lettuce, tomato, and onion.

Serve with hot sauce on the side.
