3 tbsp mustard oil
1 tbsp garlic & ginger puree
1 tsp salt
1 tsp turmeric
1 tsp ground coriander
1/2 tsp ground cumin
1/2 tsp chilli powder
3-4 slit green chillies
1/4 julienned red chilli pepper (optional)



METHOD
Place the fish in a large bowl and gently mix well with all the ingredients. Leave to marinade for 15-20 mins. The air fry in batches of 3-4 pieces at 180 degrees for 12-15 mins until golden all over.

Calling it a wrap with this very last Biriyani Masterclass. After 13 years of teaching, I have decided to wind down the business and reprioritise and realign my life.

I want to thank each and every one of you who has been on this incredible journey with me. We have learnt and laughed together and created some beautiful memories that I will cherish forever, in memory of Najma, my Mum who will always live in my heart ❤️

A real joy cooking with this delightful father and daughter duo.
