Fish Shashlik


Fish Shashlik :

Fish Fillets – ½ Kg  (Cut into cubes, add salt and lemon, then wash and keep aside-this ensures elimination of the fishy smell)
Onions 2  (Cut into cubes same dimensions as fish)
Capcicums 2 (Cut into cubes same dimensions as fish)
Tomato 2   (Cut into cubes – I did not use;  but you can)
Salt – 1 tsp
Chilly Powder 1 tsp
Ginger garlic paste 1 teaspoon
Cumin (roasted and crushed) 1 tsp
Lemon juice of 1 lemon
Garam Masala Powder or All Spice Powder – 1 teaspoon
Oil 2 tablespoons

Mix all together.  Put on skewers and BBQ/Grill or shallow fry in little oil.  Brush with BBQ sauce now and then.

BBQ Sauce :

Green chilles 2 (chopped into slanting slices)
Green Chillies 1 (finely minced)
Sugar 1 teaspoon
Chillie Powder 1 teaspoon
Salt -1/2  teaspoon
Garlic paste ½ teaspoon
Vinegar 2 Tablespoons
Tomato ketchup 5 tablespoons

Take oil in a small pan when heated add garlic and fry for a few minutes.  Then add all other ingredients and cook for 5-8 minutes.  Cool.   Keep ½ of the sauce for basting, and ½ to be used as a dip at serving time.

Garlic Naan :

They don’t look so good in the pictues,  but they tasted awesome, soft and with a hint of garlic.   I fried them on a tawa but you could also bake them in a hot oven.  This is one recipe that you should try out.

For the dough : 2-1/2 cups plain flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1-1/2 teaspoon yeast granules, 2 tablespoons ghee, 4 tablespoons yogurt, 1 teaspoon garlic, cut very fine,  1 teaspoon onion seeds/kalongee, coriander leaves 1 tablespoon cut fine, honey 1 tablespoon.

Mix all the above ingredients.  If the dough is still too hard add two tablespoons of water and knead till a soft dough is ready.   Put in a greased bowl and cover with cling wrap and leave to rise for 1-1/2 hour.   The dough will have doubled by now,  punch it back and roll into disks and keep on a flat greased platter to rise.  Bake in a 200 deg. C oven for 5-8 minutes till puffed up or fry on a tawa till it is done (I did it on a tawa).  Brush with garlic butter/plain butter.  Serve hot with Fish Shashlik.
