GRILLED FISH RECIPE
I love non-vegetarian recipes to the core. Especially fish recipes and chicken recipes. Though am a chicken lover, I can't even think of a lunch meal with a fish curry or fried fish recipe. As am from Kerala, the south Indian state fish is my staple food. But everything changed when I shifted to UAE. Still, i somehow managed to get fresh fish once in a week. I never encourage using frozen fish but fresh fish recipes are my all time favorite. I make fish curries with fresh fishes only. If not I will go for fish fry recipes or tandoori fish. Let's come to the recipe. Here am with a less hot, less spicy simple delicious grilled fish recipe with hamour fish. Hamour fish is a tasty fish when grilled, fried or curried. Hamour fish recipes is one of the most favorite fish recipes in Gulf countries. This fish tastes excellent when fried also. Today I thought of sharing a healthy fish recipe with you guys.
