👨‍🍳 निर्देश

1. 1

   Prepare the peanut sauce: Grind the roasted peanuts into a fine paste. You can use a food processor or mortar and pestle.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: If using a food processor, add a little water to help create a smooth paste.
2. 2

   In a pot, heat vegetable oil over medium heat. Sauté the chopped onion until softened, about 5 minutes.

3. 3

   Add minced garlic and grated ginger, sauté for another minute until fragrant.

4. 4

   Stir in the crushed tomatoes and chopped chili pepper (if using). Cook for 5-7 minutes until the sauce thickens slightly.

5. 5

   Add the peanut paste to the pot, stirring well to combine. Gradually add water (about 1-2 cups) to reach your desired sauce consistency. Simmer for 10-15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the sauce is rich and creamy.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: The sauce should be thick but pourable.
6. 6

   Stir in lime juice, salt, and black pepper to taste. Set the peanut sauce aside.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
7. 7

   Prepare the fish: Score the fish on both sides with a few diagonal cuts. Season generously with salt and pepper.

8. 8

   Grill the fish over medium-high heat (or on a grill pan) for about 10-15 minutes per side, depending on thickness, until cooked through and flaky.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Brush grill grates with oil to prevent sticking.
9. 9

   Serve the grilled fish hot, generously topped with the prepared peanut sauce.
