Once a week
every Tuesday or Wednesday it’s a fish day at my place :)
I keep
doing changes, either it is a Fish curry or it’s a Desi Fried one but too often
it’s this style, with fried steaks, boiled potatoes, steamed Vegetable later
fried in little butter and a delicious sauce :) This time I made the Cream
sauce instead of the Pepper Roux. It is endless delicious with no doubt and a 100/100
according to my loving Family!!
Although I
just marinated the steaks for around 2 hours but the extra ordinary taste was felt till deep in with a great taste,
spicy and yummy juicy.
I bought the frozen Salmon Steaks thick and
lovey peach color and this is how I made them
5 Salmon Steaks
(thawed)
5-6 garlic pods
(grated)
2tbs
chickpea flour
3tbs oil
¾ tsp red
chili flakes
1tsp level
salt
¼ tsp black
pepper powder
½ tsp
crushed carom seeds ( Ajwaain)
3-4 tbs
fresh lemon Juice
-mix all
spices in the chickpea flour and pour the oil over this ad make a thick paste,
sprinkle the lemon juice and make it into a smooth paste
-carefully
prick the fish steak with a fork and rub the spicy paste well on both sides of
each steak and let it rest at least 3-4 hours, best is to prepare this in the
morning so you have it done till your lunch time.
*In this
mean time you can prepare the side dishes, boil the potatoes, peel them and
keep aside
*Mix the
Vegetable and stir fry then leave it in the steam so they stay crunchy
*I use tin
red kidney and maze, fresh carrots, green beans and the red paprika
*cut all in
bite size, stir fry in oil, season with salt, red chili some Tabasco and just
tunr off the stove and leave it on the stove.
*I have an
Electrical plate so it stays warm longer so if you have a gas stove then keep
it on the lowest mark so it stay warm and gets cooked too.
*I fried the peeled Potatoes in a little bit of oil so they tasted like roasted ones
Okay what i totally forgot t mention was i fried them, i checked after a member asked me this :D
I shallow fried them in around 50ml oil,heat the oil well not at boiling point of course and fry the Steak turning each side after 2-3 minutes.
The chickpea flour makes it crispy and the Steaks get a lovely firm look.

My Ultra
delicious cream sauce, which is ideal for all type of steaks, beef or mutton
fish or shrimps : )
Goes best
with Potatoes and vegetables too.
My Super
recipe for this sauce:
200ml
Vegetable stock
200ml
liquid cream
50ml fresh
milk
2tbs flour
1tbs tomato
paste
2 tbs
butter
2 pods of
grated garlic
*add the
tomato paste and fry till it turns a bit brownish but not burnt!
*pour the
Vegetable stock, mix all well, add the liquid cream to it
*season
with black pepper and salt according to your taste
*now pour
the flour water slowly and whisk all gently and then let it simmer till it
starts turning thick
*taste in
between to check if the salt is okay or else add accordingly.
*cook till
it forms into a smooth and slightly thick Sauce
Serve this with any fried meat, with any pasta dish it is a great combination with both : ) Serve with baguettes or any whole meal bread.
Looks delicious.. Is there a substitute for the chick pea flour?
ReplyDeleteDid you bake the salmon or fry it?
ReplyDeleteThank you dear Anonymous :)
ReplyDeleteIf you have roasted chickpeas at hand, you can grind them very fine in powder form and use that.You can use the plain flour but that gets sticky and does nto stick to the fish later on.(my experience)
I shallow fried them, had forgotten to write in the recipe
so have added it now, thanks for asking :)
Thanks a lot :)... Can't wait to try it
ReplyDeleteHi. How to make vegetable stock? Any alternatives to this? Its it available ready made?
ReplyDeleteDear Anna, i have mentioned it somewhere in archives, will have to dig out and will write later.
ReplyDeleteYou can buy the Vegetable stock too,it is in powder form and you have to boil it with water.
