Fish Amritsari
Fish Amritsari is a popular North Indian dish originating from the vibrant city of Amritsar. Imagine fresh fish fillets or steaks bathed in a flavorful spice blend, then coated in a light and crispy batter before being fried to golden perfection. It's a delightful explosion of textures and tastes in every bite!
This dish is traditionally made with flaky white fish like sole, cod, or haddock, although other options can be used. The fish is cut into bite-sized pieces or fillets, ensuring a perfect balance of crispy exterior and tender interior flesh.
The fish takes a flavorful bath in a marinade made with ginger, garlic, lemon juice, yogurt (optional), and a blend of spices like turmeric, red chili powder, coriander, cumin, and sometimes fenugreek leaves. This creates a base with a delightful interplay of warmth, tang, and earthiness.
A light batter made with gram flour (chickpea flour), rice flour (sometimes corn flour), and water coats the marinated fish. This creates a delightfully crisp and golden exterior when fried.
Fish Amritsari is often served with wedges of lemon for a refreshing squeeze, chopped onions and coriander for an extra pop of flavor, and chutney or raita for a cooling and creamy contrast.
