      • 2 jalapenos
      • 1/2 tsp of Panch Foron [consists of equal quantities of mustard seeds, fenugreek(methi), cummin(jeera), aniseeds(saunf), and nigella(kala jeera)]

      • salt to taste

      1. Apply salt and 1/4 tsp of the turmeric to the fish. Now heat oil in a non stick pan and fry the fish carefully till golden on both sides.
      2. Remove the fish and keep aside.
      3. In a blender, make a paste of the mustard seeds, the jalapenos and 1/2 cup water.
      4. You will take 3-4 mins to make this paste as the mustard seeds are tough to grind.

      7. Adjust the water if needed.
