Instructions

  1. Mix the marinade ingredients in a bowl. Add the fish pieces and coat them well with the masala. Set aside for 30 minutes.
  2. Cube or quarter the onions and tomatoes. Peel the ginger and garlic, then chop the ginger, green chillies and coriander leaves.
  3. Blend the onion, tomatoes, ginger and garlic into a smooth paste.
  4. Dry roast the kasuri methi until fragrant, let it cool, then crush it with your hands.
  5. Heat oil in a pan for shallow frying. Add the marinated fish pieces side by side and fry on medium heat for 3 minutes per side until lightly browned. Then fry on high heat for 2 minutes per side. Remove and set aside.
  6. In another wok or kadhai, heat oil and add the mustard seeds. When they splutter, add the chopped green chillies.
  7. Add the onion-tomato paste and fry on high to medium heat for 20 minutes, until the paste has reduced and the oil separates.
  8. Add the spice powders and salt, and fry on medium to low heat for 5 to 6 minutes, until the masala is cooked, granular and the oil separates.
  9. Add 400 ml water and stir, then add the fried fish. Cover and cook on low heat for 10 minutes, until oil separates.
  10. Remove the lid, add the crushed kasuri methi, stir and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes.
  11. Garnish with the chopped coriander leaves.
