Baked fish recipe made in Indian style – To grill fish always choose large fish or fillet that is firm and fresh. This recipe can very much be used to grill any variety of fishes either in the oven or in the barbecue kits.
This Indian style baked fish can be served as it is or as a side to any rice based dish or noodles.Take care not to char the fish while grilling, charred meat is not healthy.Do adjust the spice and red chili powder to suit your taste buds.
To make grilled fish or baked fish , I have used salmon, one of the healthiest fishes that are high in nutrition and provides us the best health benefits. Any fish including salmontastes the best when marinated with spices and baked or grilled rather than panfried fish. If using salmon this recipe needs no oil, since salmon is oily by itself and i suggest marinating for overnight.
