Trust us, it&#8217;s worth the effort. Properly cleaned fish ensures the perfect texture and taste. Once your little fishies are sparkling clean, it\u2019s time to coat them in a flavorful mix. No time to clean the fish? Worry not! That\u2019s where FreshToHome fish come into picture. All our fish are pre-cleaned, pre-cut and are preservative-free.<br \/>\n<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In a bowl, combine 2 tablespoons rice flour, 1 tablespoon red chilli powder, 1 teaspoon turmeric powder, and a pinch of salt. This spicy blend will give the nethili fish that irresistible kick. Coat the fish evenly, ensuring each one is cloaked in the spice mix. This step is crucial for that finger-licking flavour.<\/span><\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_3070\" style=\"width: 310px\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\"><a href=\"\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-17-131423.png\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-3070\" data-attachment-id=\"3070\" data-permalink=\"\/blog\/nethili-fish-dry-fry-recipe\/screenshot-2024-07-17-131423\/\" data-orig-file=\"https:\/\/i1.wp.com\/www.freshtohome.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/07\/Screenshot-2024-07-17-131423.png?fit=577%2C381&amp;ssl=1\" data-orig-size=\"577,381\" data-comments-opened=\"0\" data-image-meta=\"{&quot;aperture&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;credit&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;camera&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;caption&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;created_timestamp&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;copyright&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;focal_length&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;iso&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;shutter_speed&quot;:&quot;0&quot;,&quot;title&quot;:&quot;&quot;,&quot;orientation&quot;:&quot;0&quot;}\" data-image-title=\"Indulge in the crispy perfection of our marinated nethili fish fry, seasoned to tantalize your taste buds with every bite.
