Rinse the fish fillets under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels. Cut them into bite-sized pieces and set aside.
Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sautΓ© until translucent, about 5 minutes.
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan. SautΓ© for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
Stir in the turmeric powder, cumin powder, and coriander powder. Cook for 1 minute to toast the spices.
Add the sliced radishes to the pan, stirring well to coat them with the spices, and cook for about 3 minutes.
Pour in the fish stock or water and bring it to a gentle simmer. Cover the pan and let the radishes cook for about 5 minutes, or until slightly tender.
Add the cherry tomatoes to the pan and cook for another 3 minutes.
Stir in the light coconut milk and bring the mixture back to a simmer. Add the fish pieces and cook gently for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and cooked through.
Season the curry with salt and black pepper, adjusting to taste.
Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the lime juice and chopped cilantro.
Serve the curry hot with a side of brown rice or quinoa for a complete heart-healthy meal.
