1. Prepare the chaat masala. Place the fish pieces in a bowl and gently mix in the oil, mustard seeds, and turmeric. Place the yogurt in a separate serving bowl.
2. Put the cilantro in a food processor or a blender, add the lemon juice, ginger, green chili peppers, paprika, and salt, and process to make a fine purée. Divide the purée into 2 portions. Mix 1 portion into the fish. Cover with plastic wrap and marinate at least 2 and up to 24 hours in the refrigerator. Mix the second portion into the yogurt, along with the chaat masala, to make a saucy chutney. Cover and refrigerate until needed.
3. Heat a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat, and cook the fish, turning once or twice, until just flaky and opaque inside and golden outside, about 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer to a serving dish, drizzle about 1/2 cup yogurt sauce on the fish, garnish with the cilantro sprigs, and serve hot with the remaining yogurt sauce on the side.
