Crusted tilapia (Fish)

Most of the people don't like fish,this may be due to the fact that they don't like fish smell after cooking and the fewer people know how to cook.But every fish doesn't smell.One important thing related to fish,my mother in law says always use lemon juice whenever cooked fish.Fish is a high protein and low fat food and also a good source of iron.

Ingredients:
  • 3 piece tilapia fillet
  • 1 egg
  • 1 teaspoon garlic pepper
  • 1 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 tbl spoon lemon juice
  • crusted almond for coating
  • All purpose flour for coating
  • Salt to taste
  • 1/2 teaspoon red chili powder
  • Basil leaves(tulsi)
How to prepare: 
  1. Beat the egg with black pepper,garlic pepper,salt and lemon juice,set aside.
  2. Mix all purpose flour with red chili and salt,set aside.
  3. Dust the tilapia fillets with mixed flour,shake off excess flour and dip into egg mixture.
  4. Then press into almond.
  5. Heat oil in a large non-stick pan on low -medium heat,cook tilapia until the golden brown on both sides,season fillet with salt if desired or you can use any other seasoning.
  6. Transfer the fillets in a serving plate and garnish with basil leaves.
  7. Serve hot with jalapeno ant tomatoes.

    Last month we tried Salmon Tikka. I call Salmon a juicy fish. Tastes great...but costs also very high.
