Coat evenly with 2 tablespoons of olive oil, 1 teaspoon of salt, and 2 tablespoons of lemon juice. Open the moji masala® Fish Masala packet and sprinkle the entire contents evenly over the fish. Press gently so the spices adhere to the surface on both sides. Let the seasoned fish rest for 5–10 minutes while you heat a pan or preheat your grill to medium-high. For a curry, prepare your base of onion and tomato in a saucepan first. Cook the fish for 3–4 minutes per side in a hot pan with a drizzle of oil, until the flesh is cooked through and the spices are fragrant. For a curry, add the fish to your sauce and simmer for 10–15 minutes. Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice and serve hot with basmati rice and a side of spiced vegetables. Total cooking time: approximately 30 minutes. What fish works best with Fish Masala?White fish such as cod, haddock, tilapia, or halibut work especially well, as does salmon and shrimp. The blend is versatile enough for almost any firm fish or shellfish. Avoid very delicate fish like sole, which may break apart during cooking. Is Fish Masala spicy?Fish Masala has a mild, warming heat — aromatic and layered rather than hot. It is ideal for those who enjoy Indian flavour without intense spice, and works well for the whole family including children. Can I use the spice blend for a curry instead of pan-searing?Absolutely.

Sauté onion, garlic, and tomato in oil, add the spice packet, then stir in coconut milk or water and simmer your fish or shrimp in the sauce for a creamy, fragrant Indian seafood curry. Does one packet make one complete dish?Yes. Each moji masala® packet is pre-measured for exactly one complete fish dish serving 3–5 people.
