Then fill the bhindi with the coconut and masala till its all done.
Keep the remaining masala aside.
In a pan add oil and braise 1/2 chopped onion and fry till brown.
Add the remaining coconut masala and braise.

5-6 pieces of Fish

1/2 tsp Turmeric powder
1 Lemon juice or Citric Acid powder
2 tsp Garlic paste
1 tbsp Besan (Gram flour) optional
1/2 tsp Corriander powder
Method
Mix all spices into a thick paste and smear on fish and marinate for 4-5 hrs.
Then fry in 4-5 tbsp of oil in nonstick pan on med flame.
Do not turn until you see it’s done (You will know if top part is white or if it’s browned up on the sides).
This is a tip for best results.
NB: I prefer hot and sour so I add more chilli and lemon.
