1. Place the fish in a large non-reactive bowl, add the salt and lime juice, and toss gently to mix. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator 30 to 60 minutes. Drain well.
2. To the fish, add the chickpea flour, ginger-garlic paste, ajwain seeds, paprika, and asafoetida, and mix, making sure all the pieces are well-coated with the marinade. Cover and marinate at least 2 and up to 4 hours in the refrigerator.
3. Heat both the oils in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat and add the fish pieces very carefully (the oil may splatter). Cook, turning once, until both sides are golden and the fish is just flaky and opaque inside, about 4 minutes per side. Transfer to a platter, sprinkle the scallions and chaat masala on top, garnish with the lemon wedges, and serve.
