Goan Fish Curry
Report
You can use any firm fish here. There are a few unusual ingredients here, like the fenugreek and the tamarind. Fenugreek will be in most spice sections of larger supermarkets. It adds a lot and I recommend you look for it at least, although you can leave it out.

Ingredients
FISH
- 1 1/2 pounds firm fish, cut into chunks
- salt
- Juice of 2 lemons
CURRY MIX
- 2 teaspoons black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon fenugreek (optional)
- 1/2 teaspoon cumin
- 2 teaspoons Turmeric
- 1 tablespoon ground coriander
- 1 tablespoon minced fresh ginger
- 2 to 5 chiles, such as Thai, Tabasco, arbol or serrano
- 4 cloves garlic, chopped
- 1 1/2 inch piece of tamarind, or 1 tablespoon tamarind paste
- 1/2 cup water (coconut water is nice here)
- 1 can of coconut milk
TO FINISH
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil or clarified butter (ghee)
- 1 onion, sliced
- 2 to 5 jalapenos, sliced
- 1/3 cup chopped cilantro
Instructions
- Toss the chunks of fish in the lemon and salt and set aside as you chop the vegetables.
- Put everything from the curry mix except the coconut milk into a food processor or blender and puree. If it's too chunky and gunks up your machine, add enough of the coconut milk to let the motor run smoothly. Set it aside.
- In a deep-sided pan, heat the vegetable oil or clarified butter over medium-high heat. Cook the onions until they are soft, and a little browned on the edges, about 6 minutes. Add the sliced jalapenos and the fish and toss to combine. Pour over the curry mix and the rest of the coconut milk. It should be a thick gravy. If it's too thick, add a little water or some more coconut milk if you have some. Let this simmer for 10 minutes, then add the cilantro. Let this cook for 1 minute, then serve with rice.
