Instructions

1. 1. Rinse the Surmai steaks thoroughly under cold water. Pat them dry with a paper towel and set aside on a plate.
2. 2. Prepare the marinade by mixing ginger-garlic paste, turmeric powder, red chili powder, ground coriander, garam masala, lime juice, mustard oil, and salt in a small bowl. Stir well to form a smooth paste.
3. 3. Rub the marinade evenly onto both sides of the Surmai steaks. Ensure the fish is well-coated. Cover and let it marinate for 15 minutes at room temperature or in the refrigerator for deeper flavor.
4. 4. Preheat a grill pan or outdoor grill over medium heat. Brush it lightly with oil to prevent sticking.
