It’s a sheer bliss to have freshly cooked fish on the dining table! The smoky flavor from the grilled and well marinated fish with the spicy potato chips was heavenly!This grilled fish was a treat for myself and my son!As my regular readers know that my hubby is not at all a fish lover so hardly experiments with fish!This one was made when he was not here for dinner and we relished it!
I love fish in any form like my dad!He is a fanatic fish lover .Whenever he went market and bought fish umma(mom)used to fry it fresh and we relish it with wheat crepe(kalakki chutte).There aren’t any food better than the one made by moms!isn’t it?Miss them!
Also made a mayo yogurt dip that compliment well with the fish!
