1/2 kg Neimeen/king fish round pieces
1 tbsp Garlic paste
10 nos Dry chilly paste
1/4 tsp Turmeric powder
4 nos Cloves (Grambu)
2 tbsp Tamarind juice
2 tsp Ginger paste
2 nos Onion paste
1/2 tsp Chilly powder
2 nos Cardamom — crushed
2 tbsp Tomato sauce
Coconut oil, to taste
Salt, to taste
Coriander leaves, a few

Preparation

Step 1
For preparing fried chilly fish, Heat the oil in a pan, add cardamom and cloves.
Step 2
Fry garlic paste, ginger paste, onion paste and chilly paste.
Step 3
Add turmeric, chilly and salt. Fry till color changes.
Step 4
Add tomato sauce, tamarind juice and little water. Allow to boil well.
Step 5
Add fish pieces, Put the lid on and cook well.
Step 6
When fish is done, make sure that the masala is well coated in fish pieces. Decorate with coriander leaves.

Tip

Never stir a fish curry with a spoon. Shake the pot gently to coat the pieces — stirring breaks them apart.
