Fried Fish Preparation

Wash the fish with fresh water to clean it and place it in the strainer for 10 to 15 minutes to drain out the excess water.
Mix salt, celery seeds (ajwain), garlic powder, ginger powder, turmeric, soy sauce, and white vinegar or lemon juice to make a mixture.
Apply this mixture thoroughly and evenly to all sides of the fish pieces. Set it aside for half an hour.

Fried Fish Batter

Now prepare the batter with gram flour (basen), cornflour, ground coriander seeds, black pepper powder, spices powder (garam masala), red chili flakes, and red chili powder. Mix well and pour in little water to form a dense paste.
Pour the batter over the fish cuts and apply this batter evenly to all the sides, and set them aside for 10 to 15 minutes.

How to Fry Fish

Put the oil in the wok and heat it on medium-high flame till it is ready for frying.
Now set the flame to medium and start frying the fish. Flip the sides of pieces after 3 to 4 minutes. One batch of fish may take total 15 minutes till it gets perfectly fried.
Fry the fish cuts till they get a beautiful golden color. Then take them out of the wok with a strainer. Keep the fried pieces in the strainer for a while till the extra oil gets strained back into the wok, and then put them over the paper towel in a serving dish.
Serve hot with slices of lemon and cucumbers along with the sauce of your choice.
