The city of Mumbai is also famous for its street food. You have to experience the walk on Chowpatty beach, the endless stalls of street vendors selling Bhel Puris, the Pav Bhaji (bread served with a spicy vegetable dish) sprinkled with lemon juice, the sugarcane juice, and the Vada Pau (a vegetable burger for lack of a better description), the list and the tastes are endless.

 

Macchi Fry Koliwada

This recipe was given to me courtesy of the Marriott Hotel in Mumbai.
  • 2 fillets white fish, large cubes
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 green chili, minced
  • Salt to taste
  • 3 tablespoons of chickpea flour (gram flour)
  • 1 tablespoon lemon juice
  • ¼ teaspoon turmeric
  • ½ teaspoon red chili powder
  • Oil to pan fry
Marinate the fish cubes in a mix of the garlic, green chili and salt. Leave for 10 minutes.
Prepare the second marinade. Mix the gram flour, turmeric, chili powder, lemon juice and a small amount of water to make a very thick batter.
Dip each fish piece into the marinade to ensure that it is well coated.
Pan fry until crisp on the outside and cooked on the inside.
Serve immediately.
