Method

1Clean 2 fresh kingfish or pomfret pieces (about 300g total) under cold water. Pat dry with a clean cloth.
2In a bowl, mix 1 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tsp ground cumin, 1 tsp turmeric, 1 tsp red chili powder, 1 minced green chile, and 1 tbsp chopped fresh coriander.
3Add the fish pieces to the spice mix. Coat evenly on both sides. Let marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature.
4Heat a non-stick griddle or tawa over medium heat. Lightly oil the surface with 1 tbsp coconut oil.
5Place the marinated fish on the hot griddle. Cook for 5–6 minutes per side, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.
6Drizzle 1 tbsp melted ghee or coconut oil over the fish while cooking for added richness.
7Remove from heat. Garnish with extra coriander and a final squeeze of lemon juice.
8Serve hot with steamed rice or a simple cucumber-tomato salad.
