Fish fry
To make GSB style fish fry, fresh fish fillets, usually from fish like pomfret or mackerel, are marinated in a blend of aromatic spices and herbs. The marinade typically includes a mix of red chili powder, turmeric, ginger-garlic paste, tamarind or kokum extract for tanginess, and sometimes a dash of vinegar. This spicy and tangy marinade is what sets GSB style fish fry apart from other fish fry recipes.
