A Taste of Punjab in Durham
Milanu’s has earned a loyal following across Durham Region for its commitment to traditional recipes, high-quality ingredients, and the warm, welcoming service that Indian hospitality is known for. One dish, in particular, has become a customer favorite: Amritsari Fried Fish.
Originating from the vibrant city of Amritsar in Punjab, this dish is a staple in North Indian street food culture. The fish is marinated in a bold blend of spices, coated in a gram flour-based batter, and fried to golden perfection. What sets Amritsari fish apart is its balance of crispy texture on the outside with juicy, flaky fish on the inside — every bite bursting with flavor.
At Milanu’s, this dish is prepared fresh daily, using traditional techniques passed down through generations. It’s no surprise it’s one of the most popular items on the menu.

Why Amritsari Fish Deserves the Spotlight
Fish dishes often get overlooked in Indian cuisine in favor of curries and kebabs, but Amritsari Fried Fish is proof that seafood can steal the show. It’s especially popular among those who love vibrant, zesty flavors with a kick of spice.
The fish is marinated in a mixture of ginger, garlic, carom seeds (ajwain), red chili powder, and lemon juice, then coated in a light chickpea flour batter that crisps up beautifully when fried. The result? A dish that’s crispy, tangy, spicy, and completely addictive.
At Milanu’s, the chefs use high-quality, boneless fish fillets to ensure a clean, satisfying bite every time. Served with mint chutney and lemon wedges, it’s a complete experience — from the first crunch to the last dip.
