Bangda fish fry recipe with step by step photos and short video. This restaurant style crisp and shallow fried fish is one of the most loved fish fry among kids . As it tastes delicious with crisp coating and also it has just one center bone which can be easily removed while eating. Indian mackerel fish is popularly known as Bangda or Ayala or Kajol Gouri in different regions of India.

This Mackerel Fish fry is a Maharastrian Style , Bangda fish fry . Hence to bring those well balanced flavours of Maharashtra cuisine , I have used Kokum petals in this recipe. A unique taste and flavors comes to this fish by adding kokum petals into marination. If you don’t have kokum petals , alternatively you can add tamarind paste for marination. Apart from Kokum petals rest all other are basic ingredients like rice flour , ginger , garlic , red chili powder, salt and lime juice. Also for a variation in the recipe you can also use fine rava / semolina for coating instead of Rice flour.

Mackerel species are rich in omega-3 fatty acids, as well as high levels of vitamin B12 . Also they contain minerals like selenium, magnesium and iron. Along with 230 calories per filet – an average of 100 grams – there are also 21 grams of protein, representing roughly 40% of your daily required intake. Hence a very good option for all who plans to loose weight.

Well , though I love fish I don’t cook frequently because of nonavailability of fresh fish many a times. But I never miss a chance to cook whenever I find good fresh fishes in market. If you are interested in few more fish recipes , you can find them below .
