Fish Tikka
Fish Tikka uses cod chunks marinated in a mix of spices including garlic paste, cumin, coriander, turmeric, Kashmiri chili, and carom seeds. The marinated fish is skewered and roasted at high heat to develop a flavorful, lightly spiced exterior while keeping the fish tender. Served hot, it's commonly paired with naan bread.
