Let your senses take you on a journey to warmer places with this Indian-inspired recipe from Aquascot's Chef Neil.

Method

  1. Place both flours in a bowl.

  2. Dry fry the spices in a frying pan, just enough to release the flavours, then add to the flours, then add the ginger paste.

  3. Mix in the water to make a smooth batter.

  4. Add the chopped coriander and season with salt and black pepper.

  5. In a fryer, heat the oil to 180°C, then dip the fish in the batter and fry for 2-3 minutes, turning halfway through the cooking time.

  6. Serve with salad, fresh coriander and sliced onions.

  7. You can also serve with a quick and easy pakora sauce which is 100g natural yogurt, 50g tomato ketchup, 25g mango chutney and 10g mint sauce. Just add all the ingredients together and stir!
