Apollo fish is a popular Indo-Chinese seafood dish that originated in the Indian city of Hyderabad. It is made using marinated fish fillets, typically either pomfret or barramundi, which are deep-fried until crispy and golden brown. The dish is then tossed in a spicy and tangy sauce made from a blend of Indian and Chinese spices, along with ingredients like garlic, ginger, green chilies, onions, bell peppers, and curry leaves.The marinade usually consists of a mixture of spices such as red chili powder, turmeric, cumin, coriander, and garam masala, along with some cornflour or rice flour to give the fish a crispy texture when fried. Once the fish is fried to perfection, it is quickly stir-fried with the aromatic sauce until the flavors meld together, creating a deliciously spicy and flavorful dish.Apollo fish is often garnished with fresh cilantro leaves and served hot as an appetizer or as a side dish with rice or noodles. Its unique combination of Indian and Chinese flavors makes it a favorite among seafood lovers, and it's commonly found on the menu of many Indian-Chinese restaurants across the globe.
