Hot and Tangy Fish
Hot and Tangy Fish is an amazing recipe which can be served in both starter and main course. It is a very spicy and hot recipe and goes very well in winters with cocktails. A number of spices are used in this recipe for amazing flavor of the dish.
A paste of coriander leaves along with garlic, ginger, coriander seeds and cumin seeds are used for marination of fish. This gives remarkable flavour to the recipe. A blend of chillies is used in this recipe to provide real hot flavour. A good amount of Green chillies, Red Chillies and pepper are used for the hot flavour. Vinegar is used for the tanginess. This recipe is cooked in a shallow pan and is cooked on low flame. Preferably mustard oil should be used as cooking medium as it gives wonderful flavour.
This is one of my favourite party snacks, which I prepare often. But I always take care that it should not be served to the Kids as it is very hot. Sometimes I prepare it by reducing the amount of spices and chilli for kids.
Hot and Tangy Fish is very popular recipe at my place and I prepare this on demand 
. Try this once and trust me you will also have to prepare on demand.
