Notes
I recommend using top-quality fillets of fresh Bhetki fish. This enhances the taste and texture.
Before marinating, pat dry the fillets properly. This will ensure perfect adherence and infusion of flavor.
Keep the marinated fish fillets aside. I usually keep them for half an hour. This also enhances the flavor.
Use a little bit of water to make the egg mixture. This will render a crisp and golden crust.
Always fry the fish fillets in batches when the oil is adequately hot. This will prevent absorption of oil.
