Fried Fish with Recheado Masala
Recheado is a very aromatic, flavorful and quite hot Goan masala that can be used for marinating, stuffing and frying any kind of seafood. Recheado means "stuffed" in Portuguese and if you order it in Goa what you normally get is a whole fish that was cut lengthwise, stuffed with plenty of this masala and fried. Every Goan family will probably have their own recipe for it, but after some research I come up with this masala that we loved and thought that it tasted pretty authentic. We used mackerel, but if you cannot get it, red snapper would also be great with it or any kind of meaty white fish. By the way, it is excellent with shrimp and crab! You can make more of this masala in advance, keep it in a container in the fridge for a few months and use it when you need it. This amount will be enough for 10-12 small mackerels.
