  3. 2 large onions finely sliced
  4. Bunch of fresh dill
  5. Handful coriander leaves, chopped
  6. 2 tbsp garlic minced
  7. 1 cup natural yoghurt
  8. 10 whole green chillies slit vertically
  9. 2 lemons juice
  10. 3 tbsp of oil
  11. Fried onion for garnishing
Masala (spice)
  1. 1 tsp Salt
  2. 1 tbsp red chilli

  4. 1 tsp Garlic powder
  5. 1 tsp dried mango powder
  6. 1 tsp paprika
  7. 1 tsp turmeric
  8. 1 tsp green cardamom
  9. 1 tbsp fenugreek leaves (Methi)
  10. 1 tsp black pepper
  11. 1 ½ tsp carom (Ajwain) crushed
  12. ½ tsp clove powder
Instructions
  1. In a large bowl mix all the spice, lemon juice and garlic marinate the fish (I used tilapia fish fillet for this recipe) and set aside for at least 15 minutes.
  2. Heat the oil over medium-high heat, add the onion slices and fry for 5 minutes, add the marinated fish, chillies and fry until oil separates from the masala, add in yogurt and stir for 2 mins gently and carefully to keep fillets from breaking apart, sprinkle over the chopped coriander, cover and cook until tender.
  3. In another cooking pan, pour in one tablespoon of oil and fry Dill for about 1 minute add water and salt, bring to boil and add the soaked rice, cook until is 85% done then drain.
  4. Transfer the fish to another plate, and add half the rice into the masala and evenly add the fish over it, then spread the second layer of rice, pour the fried onion all over cover and cook on low-heat until rice is ready.
  5. Serve hot and garnish with some fresh Dill and fried onion.
Notes
  1. Fish fillets are fragile and tend so avoid over stirring.
  2. Boneless fish is preferable
  3. You can use any fish of your choice I used Tilapia fillet

For gulab jamun
  1. 1 cup milk powder
  2. 1 tbsp fine semolina
  3. 1 tbsp all purpose flour
  4. 1 tbsp clarified butter
  5. ½ tsp Baking Soda
  6. Milk as needed
For the syrup (sherbet)
  1. 240ml water
  2. 200g caster sugar
  3. 1 tbsp Lemon Juice
  4. ¼ tsp green cardamom powder
Instructions
  1. To make a syrup: Pour water in a saucepan, add sugar and bring to a boil over medium-high heat stirring until sugar dissolves add the cardamom and lemon juice and mix, don't forget that the longer you boil the syrup, the thicker it will be, so don't overcook it otherwise the gulab jamun would not soak the syrup.
  2. To make gulab jamun's dough: In a mixing bowl combine all the dry ingredients add the butter and use your hands to mix and rub everything together.
  3. Gradually add milk to form a soft sticky dough, let it rest for at least 5 mins.
  4. Rub some oil onto your hands to make it easier to handle the dough, divide it into equal small balls and roll between your palms until smooth.
  5. Deep fry the balls until browned, drain and immerse them immediately into the hot prepared syrup.
  6. Let the gulab jamun soak in the flavoured syrup for at least 1 hour or until double in size.
