Ingredients:
500g fish fillets (preferably firm white fish like cod or tilapia) 2 large onions, finely chopped 3 ripe tomatoes, pureed 1/4 cup vegetable oil 1 tsp mustard seeds 1 tsp cumin seeds 1 inch ginger, grated 4 cloves garlic, minced 2 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust to taste) 1 tsp turmeric powder 1 tbsp coriander powder 1 tsp cumin powder 1/2 tsp red chili powder (adjust to taste) 1 tsp garam masala Salt to taste Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish) 2 cups water
Instructions:
Prepare the Fish: Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Cut the fillets into medium-sized pieces and sprinkle with a pinch of salt and turmeric. Set aside.
Make the Spice Paste: In a small bowl, mix turmeric powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, and red chili powder with a few tablespoons of water to form a thick paste. This will be your spice blend.
Cooking Base: Heat vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add mustard seeds and cumin seeds. Once they start spluttering, add chopped onions and sauté until golden brown.
Aromatics: Add grated ginger, minced garlic, and chopped green chilies. Sauté for a couple of minutes until the raw aroma disappears.
Spice Infusion: Stir in the spice paste you prepared earlier. Cook the mixture for 2-3 minutes, allowing the spices to release their flavors.
Tomato Puree: Pour in the pureed tomatoes and cook until the oil starts to separate from the masala. This indicates that the tomatoes are well-cooked.
Main Event - Adding Fish: Carefully place the fish pieces into the pan, ensuring they are well-coated with the masala. Be gentle to avoid breaking the fish.
Liquid Magic: Pour in 2 cups of water, season with salt, and bring the curry to a gentle simmer. Cover and cook for about 10-15 minutes or until the fish is cooked through.
Finishing Touch: Sprinkle garam masala over the curry and gently stir. Let it simmer for an additional 2-3 minutes.
Garnish and Serve: Garnish the fish curry with freshly chopped cilantro. Serve hot with steamed rice or warm naan bread.
