Apply the marinade evenly to all pieces of the bombay duck.
Približne 2 min
Poznámka kuchára: Ensure each piece is well coated for maximum flavor.
4
Let the marinated fish rest in the refrigerator for at least 30 minutes to allow the flavors to penetrate.

Približne 5 min
Poznámka kuchára: Shake off any excess flour before frying.
8
Heat the oil in a large frying pan or skillet over medium heat.
Približne 2 min

Carefully place the coated fish pieces in the hot oil, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
Približne 1 min
Poznámka kuchára: Fry in batches if necessary to maintain oil temperature and ensure even cooking.

Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until the fish is golden brown and crispy.
