off to the recipe..
I am not a big fan
for fish. But last weekend I absolutely fell in love with fish, when I tasted
fish manchurian and this fish tikka. I never thought that fish taste so good
when had chinese style and when it gets a grill twist. I used the basic tikka
masala recipe, but I didn't marinate it for a long time since it is fish.I
thought of using the oven to grill these, but due to the frequent powercut in
our place my plan got completely failed. So I decided to grill it tawa. Still
these tikkas turned out beautiful.

Each piece of fish
was so beautifully cooked and tastes amazing. They were spicy, tangy, flaky and
just melts in your mouth. Each piece of fish absorbed all the flavours which
you add there. All together it was a special dish.Try it out and you will know
why it is so special.

Happy Diwali! Thanks for the recipe..Big fan of your blog..I leave comments occasionally..mostly asking questions...I have a request..when you do recipe that is dry (not too much gravy)i.e. backed in oven, deep fried, bbq-ed, or roasted..it would be really nice if you put one picture such that we can see the inside of food...fish piece cut in the middle. Mostly to see the texture/colour of food...just to get an idea...mine usually get over cooked and dry. Would be big help...if you could. Thanks again.

Every time I stop by here to see what you've cooked up...I have to go get a snack. I'm always hungry!
Aarthi
@AJYes sure..I will do it next time
Aarthi
@RafeedaI have mentioned it in my notes. You should bake at 220 Degree C/450 Degree F for 15 - 20 mins or till it is cooked

I'm a sucker for things on sticks and tikka is always a treat. I wish I had some fish in my freezer cause I'd be making this ASAP.
I just finished making 2 batches of gulab jamun today and am planning on making paneer, pea and potato samosas tomorrow.

Looks yummy and delicious

You told that we should use 1 cup curd in the ingredients. i went ahead and used one cup without looking at your pictorial. It became very watery 🙁 . Please revise the ingredients. Your pictorial doesnt suggest one cup curd. I used a standard measure cup so it shouldnt be wrong.
Aarthi
@ShwetaYou need 1 cup of marinate for 500 gms of fish. I think you used little watery curd so that it has turned watery.
you should use thick curd without any water in it.
