Fish fillets ½ kg
Oil 1 tbsp
Oil to shallow fry
For Green Chutney
Coriander leaves 1 bunch
Mint leaves ½ bunch
Garlic cloves 5 – 6
Desiccated coconut 4 tbsp
Green chilies 10-15
Cumin seeds 1 tsp
Sugar 1 tsp
Salt 1 tsp
Lemon (Juice) 2 lemons
Method
Grind the green chutney by putting all ingredients in a blender with very little water, it should not be very runny. Add 1 tbsp oil to the chutney to make it moist. Liberally apply chutney to the fish. Put fish in butter paper, foil or banana leaves. Steam over hot water till fish is done.
Fish can also be put in banana leaves and enclosed with a piece of thread and then baked or shallow fried or steamed. If using banana leaves, then soften them first by holding them over a low flame. Serve the fish in the leaves or foil parcels.
