Step 7
Once it boils, add fish, then stir the fish pan enough for masala to cover the fish.
Step 8
Cook for 15 to 20 minutes.
Step 9
Delicious Salmon Curry is ready. It tastes better if you keep it for 4 -5 hours and then re-heat for use.
Step 10

Tip
Taste the gravy before adding the main ingredient. It should be well-seasoned and balanced on its own — the protein or vegetable will dilute it slightly.
