Start by preparing the fish. You can use whole fish or cut it into pieces. Make sure to cut one side lightly to help it cook evenly.

For the marinade, mix together 1 tablespoon of cumin seeds, 1 tablespoon of red chili powder, and salt to taste in a bowl.

Add 1 tablespoon of ajwain to the mixture for flavor.

If desired, add a few drops of food color to give the fish a nice color.

Mix all the ingredients well to form a marinade.

Apply the marinade generously on both sides of the fish, ensuring it is well coated.

Let the fish marinate for about 1 hour to absorb the flavors.

Preheat the grill and place the fish on it, cooking it on one side until it is done.

After a few minutes, flip the fish to cook the other side. Keep an eye on it to avoid burning.

Once cooked, squeeze fresh lemon juice over the fish for added flavor before serving.
