Seer fish/Vanjiram fish egg fry



I am very fond of fish egg fry. When we were children, the man who came our house in his cycle with variety of fishes routinely, used to give fish eggs free and my  mom used to fry them and give them hot hot to us. We were strict nonvegetarians, non veg was part of most of our meals and my mom is an excellent cook. After shifting to Chennai, I got fish eggs couple of times, but today I was fortunate to get huge Vanjiram fish eggs. But I had to give a huge price similar to the fish rates.
Ingredients
Fish eggs
Turmeric powder
Chilli powder
Jeera powder
Pepper powder
Ginger garlic paste
Salt to taste
Oil for frying
I am not mentioning the measures, based on the size and quantities of fish eggs you get, you may decide accordingly.  You may take similar measures as if you take for fish fry.
Procedure
The eggs will have thin layer of membranes. Carefully remove the top layer .


This step should be done carefully, otherwise, the eggs will become fragmented. Wash them carefully and gently. You may use turmeric powder during washing.  Cut them into pieces. Take all the Masala ingredients and make a smooth paste. Smear it on the egg pieces and marinate for half an hour.
Shallow fry in slow frame with frequent turning till it becomes nice brown and crispy on the out side.
Serve it hot hot and enjoy...
