Homemade Fish Fingers..


Hii..friends..another tempting evening snack is ready for u..This time I picked up a very crispy snack item made of fish.. For all the fish lovers out there ,I’ve tried to bring out a very easy recipe. You can make this anytime at home.. & this can be a fabulous starter item for welcoming guests..So, here I go with my recipe of “Homemade Fish Fingers”.. I’ve made this out of Tilapia fillets..  You can try it with  any boneless fish fillets..:)
Ingredients:

Fish fillets (cut into thin strips-1 inch thick) ; onion & garlic paste ; ginger paste ; cumin powder ; coriander powder ;  garam masala powder ; cilantro leaves  chopped ; green chilies chopped ; lemon juice ; black pepper powder ; salt
For frying :- Bread crumbs ; Besan ( gram flour ) ; white oil.

Procedure:

 1)Take a bowl & marinate the fish slices  into it.

 2)Marination: To the fish slices one by one add 4 tsp of onion-garlic paste ; 1 tsp ginger paste ; 1 tsp each of cumin powder ; coriander powder ; garam masala powder ; then add chopped cliantro & green chilies into it. Now sprinkle salt and pepper powder over it. Last but not the least, mix all the above ingredients with the fish slices & add 2-3 tsp of lime juice into it.

3)Keep this marination covered for 1 hour.

4)Now take a flat dish and mix equal amount of besan & bread crumbs . Add a pinch of salt into it. Mix this very well.(It must be dry)


5)Now take each of the marinated fish strips & roll it over the dry mixture(step 4) very evenly & keep it in another clean dish. Repeat this process with the other ones too.
 6)Heat  enough oil in a frying pan. As the fish slices get well coated , take each of the slices and deep- fry till they turn brown..

7)Serve it with salad & kasundi..& ..enjoy it over a hot cup of tea..:)
