Fish Pepper Masala is a flavorful South Indian dish where fish pieces are cooked in a spicy and tangy masala (spice blend). The fish is typically marinated with turmeric, red chili powder, and salt, then pan-fried until golden brown.
The masala paste, made from onions, tomatoes, ginger, garlic, and a blend of aromatic spices such as coriander, cumin, and fenugreek seeds, is cooked until it forms a thick gravy. Tamarind paste or lemon juice adds a tangy twist to balance the heat of the spices.
