Shallow-Fried Masala Fish
This South Indian style fried fish is very aromatic and flavourful, slightly tangy, with a nice kick from chillies and garnished with sweet caramelized onions. It goes well together in a meal with curries with gravy or can be served by itself with plain rice or green salad. I used pomfret, but any other flat fish as well as sardines will do. Do I really need to mention how excellent it is with cold beer...? :)
