INSTRUCTIONS

1. Marinate the portioned fish with a touch of coriander powder, turmeric powder, lemon juice and salt for 10 minutes.
2. In a hot flat pan, quickly sear both sides of the fish in coconut oil and set aside. Add the remainder of the coconut oil to the pan. Heat oil,  add mustard seeds and wait until it crackles, add in curry leaves and sliced red onion, sauté the onion just to sweat and add sliced green chili.
