Postup

Krok za krokem

1
Wash the fish pieces thoroughly and pat them dry with a paper towel.
Přibližně 2 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Ensure fish is very dry for better marinade absorption.
2
In a bowl, combine the fish with turmeric powder, red chili powder, and salt.
Přibližně 1 min
3
Gently mix to coat the fish evenly, then set aside to marinate for at least 15 minutes.
Přibližně 15 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Marinating allows the flavors to penetrate the fish.
4
For the masala paste, combine grated fresh coconut, dried red chilies, coriander seeds, cumin seeds, black peppercorns, cloves, garlic cloves, ginger, and tamarind paste in a blender.
Přibližně 3 min
5
Add water and blend to a smooth, fine paste, adding a little more water if needed to achieve the desired consistency.
Přibližně 2 min
Poznámka kuchaře: A smooth paste is key for a creamy curry.
6
Heat coconut oil in a large pot or kadai over medium heat.
Přibližně 1 min
7
Add the chopped onion and sauté until it turns translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
Přibližně 7 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Don't rush this step; properly cooked onions add sweetness.
8
Stir in the green chilies and chopped tomato, cooking until the tomatoes soften and release their juices, about 3-4 minutes.
Přibližně 4 min
9
Add the prepared masala paste to the pot and cook for 5-7 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raw smell disappears and the oil starts to separate from the paste.
Přibližně 7 min
Poznámka kuchaře: This step is crucial for developing the curry's deep flavor.
10
Pour in the water and bring the gravy to a gentle simmer.
Přibližně 3 min
11
Carefully slide the marinated fish pieces into the simmering gravy.
Přibližně 1 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Handle the fish gently to prevent it from breaking.
12
Cover the pot and let the curry simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.
Přibližně 10 min
Poznámka kuchaře: Avoid overcooking the fish to keep it tender.
13
Garnish with curry leaves and fresh coriander.
Přibližně 1 min
14
Serve the Malvani Fish Curry hot with steamed rice or chapati.
