Ingredients

Marinade

Fish

Preparation

Preparation

1. Make the Marinade

In a large bowl, combine yogurt, lemon juice, ginger-garlic paste, red chili powder, turmeric powder, garam masala, salt, and oil. Mix well until all ingredients are fully combined.

2. Marinate the Fish

Cut the white fish fillets into bite-sized pieces. Add the fish to the marinade and coat evenly. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 30 minutes (up to 2 hours for a more intense flavor).

Grilling

3. Preheat the Grill

Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 200°C or 400°F). If using a charcoal grill, prepare the coals until they are covered with white ash.

4. Skewer the Fish

If using wooden skewers, soak them in water for 30 minutes to prevent burning. Thread the marinated fish pieces onto the skewers, leaving a little space between each piece.

5. Grill the Fish

Place the skewers on the preheated grill. Grill for 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork. Brush with extra oil if desired.

6. Serve

Remove the skewers from the grill. Serve hot with lemon wedges and garnish with fresh coriander.
