December 21, 2008 No CommentsI am strictly vegetarian, but I love to cook for my husband. He is really fond of non-veg dishes. Last weekend I tried cooking fish and he relished it. Let me share the recipe with you.
The dish is called Fish Shami Kabab

3 cm piece ginger
1 big pod garlic
400 gms curd (tie it up in a muslin bag for one hour)
2 eggs
1 tbsp. lemon juice
Method:
Mash fish to fine paste.
Prepare a masala of all the dry ingredients.
Add salt and lemon juice to the curds and blend well. Add the masala and the curd mixture to the fish and mix well.
