How to Make Bombay Fish And Chips With Curried Coleslaw And Dipping Sauce

  1. Marinate 2 mackerel fillets in 2 tbsp lemon juice, 1 tbsp grated ginger, 2 cloves minced garlic, 1 tsp salt, 1 tbsp sambla oelek (chili paste), a pinch of orange food coloring, and 1 beaten egg. Let it marinate for at least 30 minutes.
  2. Cut 2 large sweet potatoes into 1/4-inch thick sticks. Soak in water for 15 minutes.
  3. In a large bowl, combine 1 medium shredded cabbage, 1/2 cup shredded carrots, 1/4 cup currants, and 2 chopped green onions. Season with 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp pepper, and 1 tbsp lemon juice. Let it sit for at least 15 minutes.
  4. Gently squeeze the coleslaw to remove excess moisture.
  5. Mix in 1/2 cup mayonnaise, 1 tbsp curry powder, and a few drops of Tabasco sauce (to taste).
  6. Combine the cabbage and mayonnaise mixture. Refrigerate until serving.
  7. Heat 2 inches of oil in a deep pan to 350°F (175°C). Fry the drained sweet potato sticks in batches until golden brown and crispy. Drain on paper towels.
  8. Keep the fries warm in a 200°F (95°C) oven until ready to serve.
  9. Heat 2 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  10. Dredge each marinated mackerel fillet in 1/2 cup gram flour. Shallow fry until crispy on the outside and juicy on the inside (about 3-4 minutes per side).
  11. Remove the fish and place on paper towels to drain. Sprinkle with chat masala.
  12. Serve the sweet potato fries on a plate, top with 2 mackerel fillets, and add a generous serving of coleslaw alongside a lemon wedge.
