Chanda Machh Bhaja
Chanda machh bhaja keeps the same small fish simple: turmeric, salt, mustard oil, and a crisp shallow fry. The fish should be golden and delicate, served with lime, sliced onion, and rice or dal.
π Recipe adapted from Wikidata (Dish)
Pat the fish very dry so they fry instead of steaming.
Rub with salt, turmeric, and a light dusting of rice flour if a crisper crust is wanted.
Heat oil until shimmering and fry the fish in batches without crowding.
Turn once, cooking until golden and crisp at the fins and edges.
Drain briefly and serve hot with lime, onion, and green chile.
