 How to Make Grilled Tandori Pomfret Fish without an oven?

To make this first you need to marinate your pomfret fish. Pomfret fishes are available with head and without head. It depends on you what you want and how you want. I generally like it both ways.

So, what you need to do is grab your big old box of spices and marinate your fish with the spices. Let the masalas go in the fish and then let it stay in the fridge for 10-15 minutes.

Now, just grill the fish in the pan with a knob of butter and let the fishes turn golden brown and slightly charred on both sides. They will be done in about 2-3 minutes on high flame. Flip over and grill both sides. I did it on a grill pan. You can also use regular tava.

Once it is done, just squeeze some lemon juice on top and garnish with fresh coriander and onion rings.

Yes, guys, it is actually that easy recipe.
