Masala Grilled Fish Recipe

Masala Grilled Fish Recipe

Ingredients: Serves 4

800g firm fish fillets

  (salmon, tuna, swordfish, monkfish)

Juice of 2 lemons

Salt

50g green chilies, chopped

50g shallots, chopped

50g ginger, peeled and chopped

1 tablespoon garam masala

1 teaspoon turmeric

 

Method:

Season the fish fillets with the lemon juice and salt.  Blend the green chilies, shallots, ginger, garam masala, and turmeric in a food processor to obtain a thick paste, adding a little water if necessary.  Coat the fish pieces on both sides with the paste.  Grill fish on both sides until done (about 3 minutes each side).  Serve hot.  Garam is Hindi for "warm" and masala means "spice."  Garam masala is a classic spice mix consisting of black pepper, cloves, cinnamon, cardamom, cumin seeds, bay leaves, and coriander seeds, but in as many varying proportions as there are cooks in India.
