Rava fish fry recipe, Fish rava fry recipe

Rava fish fry is a shallow fried fish with crispy exterior and soft interior filled with masala. This recipe is a slight variation to the regular fish fry that we make at home and still it makes a lot of difference in its taste and has a more appealing texture/look too. Yes just a coat of sooji/ rava makes all the difference in taste and look. For this recipe I have used tilapia fish fillets and that’s what was available with me(during this lockdown), but you can try making this same recipe in king fish and it will taste super yum. Serve this fish fry hot with biryani for the coming weekend and it will surely be loved by your family or loved ones. So let’s get to the making!
