Cilantro Fish ~ When Hubby Cooks!

Pin

The hardest part about blogging I guess is to take the time to actually write and collate the entire post! While cooking & clicking happens in full swing almost on a daily basis, I hardly find the time to download the pictures on my computer & then put the post together. Add to it the occasional laziness and you have weeks of absence from me.

Before I delay it any longer, I have a nice new announcement to make – if you have already liked my Facebook page you may be knowing this already.
We’ve moved! Yes, my family has now relocated to Dubai, U.A.E and we have parked ourselves in the lovely home of my brother & his family. In a few weeks we move into our own nest, but till then we are having a gala time cooking & eating as one big happy family. Considering that there are four adults and four kids in the house now there is a lot of food being cooked every single day and I am thrilled to have extra mouths to feed and experiment upon (wicked grin!).Its a joy to actually make stuff knowing that it will finish off in no time – especially cakes – there are always takers for all kinds of cakes that I bake and I no longer have to worry about what will happen to the rest of a cake when just 2-3 slices have been eaten. There is definitely no overeating (even if someone is greedy) so nobody complains when sinful goodies make their way to the family dining table.

 

I am also very excited to finally bake in a bigger oven that is part of the cooking range here. Back in Mumbai all my baking/grilling experiments were painstakingly done in a small OTG and we put off buying a bigger one for lack of counter space and our plans to relocate. So in the coming few weeks I hope to delight you with some baked/grilled goodies – sweet & savoury, that all of us enjoyed.

For now, its Roshan’s very own take on Cilantro Fish – a recipe he tried recreating at home after having eaten a similar dish in a restaurant which featured chicken instead of fish. He has tried it several times already modifying quantities & ingredients as he went and it has been a hit everytime. We have tried frying it on a grill pan, baking and steaming too. The best version of all is the grill/broil version which is the recipe I am sharing today.

You can use the same recipe to make grilled chicken – it will taste just as great. Try using tender chicken preferably the thigh pieces with the skin on.
