Mackerel or Bangda cutlets

Bangda or mackerel fish is not my favourite just because it has too many bones. BUT I love it as cutlets. No bones to pick! :)

I have had bangda cutlets the Goan way. But due to unavailability of Goan vinegar, I have twisted the recipe and adapted so that I can relish bangda, just my way!

Ingredients for cutlets:

One big mackerel that's cleaned, marinated in salt and turmeric powder and steamed

one medium onion chopped

2tbs ginger garlic paste

chopped green chilies as per preference

chopped cilantro

one tsp Chili powder

half tsp turmeric powder

salt as per taste

one tsp garam masala

one tbs malt vineger

2tbs bread crumbs

Method: 1 - Debone the mackerel and and make it flaky 2 - Add chopped onions, ginger, garlic, green chilies as per preference to the fish flakes. 3 - Add red chili powder, turmeric, salt and malt vinegar (you may use regular) 4 - Now add the bread crumbs 5 - Mix all the ingredients to make a dough.

6 - Take lemon sized ball and shape into as you like, dab in semolina and pan fry with very little oil on medium low flame until both sides are firm and crusty
