You might have noticed i have been posting Tawa friendly dishes for the past two days, today's recipe is definitely a delicious treat for Seafood lovers. Though am a great fan of fish fries, its been a long i prepared fish fries. However my today's recipe is quite a different dish from the usual fish fries. Amritsari style fried fish is an excellent starter when served for a get together or in a party. When i googled i saw varieties of Amritsari fried fish which calls for deep frying, but today's version goes for tawa frying. Tawa, this pan works awesome for frying fishes, hence i went with this tawa fried Amritsari fish. While watching a TV show, i got hooked to this delicious starter and i bookmarked this dish immediately. Finally i got a chance few days back to dish out this super delicious Punjabi style tawa fried fish for our Sunday lunch.
Usually prepared by deep frying, this fish fries are served immediately to please seafood lovers, but today's versions calls for Tawa frying, obviously with less oil this dish makes an excellent side to serve along with some rotis. Am running this week's blogging marathon with Make in Tawa as theme. After a delicious rice and a different noodle dish with Banana stem, i couldnt stop myself to post this fantastic Tawa machli Amritsari aka tawa fried Amritsari fish for this theme. If you are vegetarian, dont forget to prepare this same dish with paneer cubes or tofu, trust me you will definitely go crazy if you tastes this dish at home. Do you know this dish is quite a popular Punjabi dish and whoever visit Punjab will never return back to their place without tasting this delicious dish.
