Ingredients
- 4 skinless pomfret
- 6 dried Kashmiri chillies
- 2 chopped onions
- 2 teaspoon of tamarind pulp
- 1 teaspoon of cumin seeds
- 1/2 teaspoon of turmeric
- 1 teaspoon of black peppercorns
- 2 cloves of chopped garlic
- teaspoon of sugar
- 1 tablespoon of cider vinegar
- Rice flour for dusting
- Before starting the actual recipe, you need to soak the chillies in warm water for around 10 minutes. Drain the water and remove the seeds from chillies.
- Put the chillies, tamarind, cumin seeds, turmeric, peppercorns, garlic, onion, sugar and vinegar in a fine mixer (food processor) and blend until smooth. Add salt to taste.
- Spread this spice paste on both the sides of the pomfret fillet, dust with rice flour.
- These pomfret fillets can be cooked on a barbecue or a preheated grill for 1-2 minutes on both sides.
Ingredients
- Potatoes
- Filling as required
- If you wish to cook the potatoes directly on the barbecue or the bonfire, you need to wash and wrap them in foils individually. Cook them in the barbecue for 1-1 hours.
- Other ways, in order to save them, you can precook them in an oven or a microwave till properly baked. These semi cooked potatoes can be grilled on the barbecue until crisp!
- Scoop out the potato and fill filling of your choice in the potato. Cheese and bacon, baked beans and grated cheese, cream cheese, scrambled egg, etc. make up excellent filling.
