The Rachaedo Fish! :D

Going on a holiday is always the ideal kink in our monotonous life.  I make it a point to pack my bags and hit the road occasionally, when finding my inner peace becomes imperative. Sifting through some old photographs from my trips to Goa, brought back memories of its beautiful beaches and listening to the waves crash while staring out into gorgeous sunsets. This would be closely followed by a hankering for mouthwatering Goan cuisine, ofcourse! XD With the family enjoying cricket season last month, we would often cook this Goan delight(picture) called the Rachaedo fish! A very simple recipe. Try it out!

Ingredients

1) Telapiya fish. (Use any fish )
2)  4 tbsp Rava or Semolina
3) 1 tbsp Flour
4) 1/2 a Onion
5) 3 tsp chopped Ginger
6) 6 cloves of Garlic
7) 5-10 pieces of Red Chilies.
8) 1/2 tsp peppercorn
9) 1/2 tsp Cumin
10) 1/2 tsp Turmeric
11) 1 tbsp Vinegar
12) A pinch of salt
13) Optional: a few Tamarind pieces and 1 tbsp Sugar

Recipe

1) Grind all the ingredients to make a fine paste. This is the Rachaedo paste.
2) Make slits on the fish with a knife.
3) Slather and stuff the fish with the paste and set aside for an hour.
3) Dust the pieces of fish with flour and fry it in oil. Squeeze lime juice over the fish pieces and serve with cold Beer! ^__^ I often fry chunks of chicken in the paste as well. ;) Absolutely delicious! (Pic below)
