Lahori Fish Salad with Tomatoes Capsicum & Chilli Lime Dressing

Lahori Fish Salad with Tomatoes Capsicum & Chilli Lime Dressing Recipe

This is refreshing and healthy Salad recipe. I used our desi Pakistani flavors in this salad and who does’t like Lahori fried fish,so it is not just a salad ,it is a complete meal,here I pan cooked the fish in a frying pan with some fry light oil. Make sure to use non-stick pan and cook the fish on low-medium heat for 8-10 minutes to make it crispy like actual Lahori fried fish. The Chili lime dressing has very balanced sweet and sour flavors which will go really well with fish and salad. It is actually a kind of Thai salad dressing, not exactly that but I get the idea from that.

Lahore is a very famous city in Pakistan and this Lahori Fried fish is very famous there. I love the flavors and crispy texture of this fish, so I thought why not make it in a healthy style.
