fresh whiting fish fillets, cleaned
2 teaspoons cumin
1 1/2 teaspoons turmeric
1 1/2 teaspoons hot paprika
1 teaspoon sweet paprika
1/2 teaspoon pepper

1/2 cup flour for coating the fish

  • Transfer the fish to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
  • Serve warm or at room temperature with lemon wedges.
