Fried Black Pompana Yesterday's dinner came out looking too good, that I couldn't resist posting it here. It was a big fresh black pompana fish fried the traditional way - the way a malayali loves it! The recipe is pretty simple for such a tasty dish. Ingredients Fresh Black Pompana Fish - 1 Ginger paste - 1 1/2 tsp. Garlic paste - 1 1/2 tsp. Kashmiri Chilli Powder - 3 to 4 tsp. Turmeric powder - 1/2 tsp. Black Pepper powder - 1 unheaped tsp. Juice of fresh lime - 1/2 tsp. Salt to taste Procedure Mix all the ingredients except the fish with little water to form a thick paste. Apply the paste liberally on the fish such that it is completely coated in the masala. Leave it to rest for atleast 30 min. Heat enough coconut oil in a skillet to deep fry the fish. Fry the marinated fish on medium flame and serve with hot steaming rice. Note :- The most important part is, the fish HAS to be fresh. The freshness alone brings a whole new level of flavo
