Tomato and Coconut Fish Curry

"Adapted from Monica Bhide on npr.org. A delicious fish curry with plenty of spice. A nice yogurt and cucumber salad complements the spice well. This recipe was my first *excellent* curry. ***Note: brown mustard seeds and fresh curry leaves can be found at an Indian grocery store. Also, black mustard seeds may substitute for the brown."

directions

  • Heat oil over medium heat, once it starts to simmer a bit, add the black mustard seeds.
  • Once the mustard seeds begin to crackle, add the curry leaves, ginger, garlic, and serrano chili. Saute for 30 seconds to combine, and then add tomato.
  • Gently cook the tomato over medium-low heat for 10-12 minutes or until the tomato softens. If the tomato starts to stick to the pan add a few tablespoons of water.
  • Stir in the tumeric, chili powder, and salt. Cook for 1 minute.
  • Add the shrimp or fish and cook for 5 minutes.
  • Add coconut milk and return to a boil. Once a boil is reached, reduce heat to a simmer, and allow to simmer until the fish is tender.
  • Serve promptly!
