Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 500 grams White fish fillets (such as cod, tilapia, or halibut)
- 400 ml Coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons Oil (vegetable or coconut)
- 1 medium Onion, chopped
- 3 cloves Garlic cloves, minced
- 1 tablespoon Ginger, minced
- 2 medium Tomatoes, diced
- 1 teaspoon Ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon Ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon Ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon Red chili powder (optional)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro, chopped
- 1 tablespoon Lemon juice
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 100 ml Water
Instructions
Cut the fish fillets into large chunks (about 2 inches each) and set aside.
Heat the oil in a large pan over medium heat.
Add the chopped onion and sauté for 3-4 minutes until translucent.
Stir in the minced garlic and ginger, cooking for another 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
Add the diced tomatoes and cook for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes break down and form a thick mixture.
Add the ground turmeric, cumin, coriander, and red chili powder (if using). Stir well to combine with the tomato mixture.
Pour in the coconut milk and water, and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
Season the curry with salt and stir well. Let it simmer for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
Carefully add the fish chunks to the curry. Cover the pan and let the fish cook for 7-8 minutes, or until it flakes easily with a fork.
Stir in the lemon juice and fresh cilantro just before serving.
Serve hot with steamed rice or warm naan bread.
