Recipe for  Fish Curry

By odishavisit

Dish Info

Curry in which fresh fish is cooked with onions, tomatoes, coconut and various spices and herbs. Try my simple, step-by-step instructions for the best fish curry you’ve ever made.

Ingredients

It’s a favourite among those who enjoy seafood and is also known as Indian fish masala. Fish curry is a staple in many Asian nations and can be prepared in a variety of ways utilising a wide range of readily available ingredients including coconut, poppy seeds, tamarind, etc.

Ingredients

This article explains how to do it with only the bare essentials, like a pair of pants. Fish from any body of water will do for a fish curry, but river fish, also known as freshwater fish, is ideal.

Freshwater fishes make a huge difference in a curry, but I realise that not everyone has access to them. 

I’ve already given you a taste of the authentic Andhra fish pulusu my mum makes with tamarind. That’s not at all like the recipe presented here, which is built on a tomato and onion base. 

You can’t go wrong with steaming rice, flavoured rice like jeera rice or ghee rice, or flatbreads like roti, paratha, or naan with this fish curry. 

Make Masala Paste 

One tablespoon of oil on a hot pan. Sprinkle in some cumin and watch it explode. Afterwards, throw in some onions and cook them down until they’re golden. 

Next, add the ginger and garlic and cook for another 30-60 seconds. When they start to smell good, throw in some tomatoes and a pinch of salt. 

The third step is to fry the meat until the raw scent disappears. 

Add coconut, red chilli powder, turmeric and fennel seeds (optional) (optional).  Cook till the onion masala has a pleasant aroma. Make sure the raw odour has vanished. Wait until it totally cools down.
