Instructions
- In a plate, mix red chilli powder, turmeric, water and salt into a fine paste. Coat the fish steaks evenly and marinate for at least half an hour.
- Line the baking tray with parchment paper while your oven is preheating at 180° C for about 10 minutes. Once ready, place the marinated fish steaks on the tray and fry on grill mode for about 7 minutes.
- Flip the fish after 7 minutes and fry for another 7 minutes on the other side. Once the colour changes to brown, brush some oil on the steaks and bake for 5 minutes on each side.
- Garnish with black pepper powder and lemon juice. Serve hot with mint and coriander chutney.
