Fish in Green Masala recipe is simple, easy to prepare and extremely nourishing at the same time. It contains the best mix of disease-fighting and anti-ageing nutrients. What’s more, it is heart-friendly since fish contains Omega-3 fatty acid, and the greens, of course, are rich in iron, calcium, vitamin C, and soluble fibre.
