About Tomato Fish Curry
This Tomato Fish Curry Recipe is a delicious North Indian-style curry in which fish pieces are cooked in a spicy tomato-based gravy. I had some fish slices sitting in the freezer and wanted to finish them. So, for dinner, I tried this recipe. Mohit loved it a lot. It is easy to make, uses simple ingredients, and comes together in under 30 minutes. Serve it for comforting meals with steamed rice and sliced onions. It also pairs well with phulka, naan, or tandoori roti. Oil – Make this curry in mustard oil for the best flavor. If mustard oil is not available, then use another cooking oil. Spice Powders – This fish curry is spiced with Indian spice powders such as coriander powder, turmeric powder, Kashmiri red chili powder, and garam masala powder. Others – You will also need carom seeds (ajwain), red onions, ginger garlic paste, salt, green chilies, fresh tomatoes, and cilantro (fresh coriander leaves). Adjust the green chilies as per your taste. Heat 4 tablespoon mustard oil in a pan over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, add ½ teaspoon carom seeds and let them crackle for 4-5 seconds. Add 1 cup of chopped red onions and cook until they are light brown (5-6 minutes), stirring frequently. Now add the following ingredients and cook for 10-12 seconds.
2 tablespoon coriander powder 1 teaspoon turmeric powder 2 teaspoon Kashmiri red chili powder 1 teaspoon salt
Add 3 cups of water and bring the curry to a boil. Check for salt and add more if needed. Garnish with 2 tablespoon chopped cilantro and serve hot.
