Dice the onion, mince the garlic, and grate the ginger.
Trim and quarter the radishes.
Heat olive oil in a large sauté pan over medium heat.
Add the cumin seeds and toast for about 1 minute until fragrant.
Add the diced onion, minced garlic, and grated ginger to the pan. Sauté for 3-4 minutes until the onion is translucent.
Stir in the curry powder and cook for another minute.
Add the radishes, cherry tomatoes, coconut milk, and fish stock. Stir to combine.
Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer and cook for about 10 minutes until the radishes are tender.
Cut the fish fillets into 2-inch pieces and season them with salt and pepper.
Add the fish to the pan, submerging them in the curry sauce. Cover and simmer for an additional 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and opaque.
Remove from heat and stir in fresh parsley.
Squeeze the juice of the lemon over the curry and adjust seasoning with more salt or pepper if necessary.
Serve hot, garnished with additional parsley if desired.
