Add oil to this mixture so that we do not use oil while frying/grilling.

Add the lemon juice and mix well.

Now, apply this mixture to the fish so that this masala evenly coats the fish.

Leave it for 15 minutes.

In a Tawa/Grill, place the marinated fish and cook for 3 min, turn and cook for another 2 min till the fish is cooked. On the whole, after 7-8 min the fish is cooked and ready to eat.
