Fish Fry Masala

I tasted this yummy Dish from a Restaurant with Prawns as the main ingredient. The taste was lingering on to my tongue ever since then and really wanted to try out in my kitchen.. And Hurrah I have succeeded in making it with the same taste and colour. At certain times I would love to appreciate self ;) ;) ;)

Here it goes the picture first and then the recipe following. I want all nonveg lovers to make this at home and send me the feed back.. am sure this dish wont disappoint you :)

I have tried this recipe using mackerel fish. But if you get bigger and thick fleshed fish you can try this out and the taste will be awesome.
