Tomato Tamarind Fish Curry Recipes

Steps:

• Blitz together the garlic, chilli, ginger, turmeric and ground coriander with 3 tbsp water. Heat the oil in a large pan and toast the cumin and fennel seeds, letting them sizzle until aromatic. Add the ginger paste and fry for 3 mins.
• Empty the tomatoes into the spice pan, plus a can of water. Add the beans, bring to the boil, then turn down the heat and simmer for 5 mins. Stir in the tamarind paste. Add the fish fillets, generously season with ground black pepper, cover and simmer for 10 mins. Take off the lid, carefully turn the fillets, then bubble the sauce until the fish is cooked through and the sauce is thick. Sprinkle over the coriander leaves and serve with rice.

Steps:

• Place fish in a bowl; add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon chile powder, turmeric, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and allow to marinate for about 10 minutes.
• Place tamarind pulp in a bowl and pour warm water over it. Squeeze tamarind to extract juice.
• Heat 1/4 cup oil in a skillet over medium heat; add cumin seeds and stir. Add onion to cumin; cook and stir until onion is translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Add garlic paste and cook for 3 minutes. Add carp, cover the skillet, and cook for 5 minutes.
• Mix tamarind juice into fish mixture; bring to a boil. Turn carp pieces; add 2 tablespoons red chile powder, coriander, and salt. Cook over low heat until sauce thickens and oil separates, about 10 minutes. Garnish with coriander leaves.
