Fishermans Curry Recipes

INDIAN FISH CURRY

Steps:

• Mix the mustard, pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons of canola oil in a shallow bowl. Add the fish fillets, turning to coat. Marinate the fish in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
• Combine the onion, garlic, ginger, and cashews in a blender or food processor and pulse until the mixture forms a paste.
• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the prepared paste; cook and stir for a minute or two. Add the cayenne pepper, turmeric, cumin, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt, and sugar. Cook and stir for an additional five minutes. Stir in the chopped tomato and vegetable broth.
• Arrange the fish fillets in a baking dish, discarding any extra marinade. Top the fish with the sauce, cover the baking dish, and bake in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro.

FISHERMAN'S CURRY

Steps:

• Stir the lemon juice and 1 tsp salt into the fish pieces and set aside. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the whole spices and curry leaves, cook for 3-4 mins, then add the onions. Fry until the onions are soft, then add the chillies, ginger and garlic. Tip in the tomatoes and the remaining spices and cook, uncovered, on a low heat for about 5-8 mins. Stir frequently to prevent the spices sticking and burning.
• Pour 150ml water into the pan, bring to a simmer, then add the fish. Cover with a lid and cook for 5 mins more. Serve with rice.

MADRAS FISHERMAN'S CURRY

Steps:

• In a small cup stir together salt and turmeric and sprinkle on both sides of orange roughy fillets. Let fillets stand at cool room temperature, loosely covered with plastic wrap, 10 minutes.
• With a mortar and pestle or in an electric coffee/spice grinder coarsely grind mustard seeds. Coarsely chop onions and, wearing protective gloves, chop serranos. In a food processor coarsely grind onions, serranos, cilantro, and coconut, scraping down side occasionally. In a bowl dissolve tamarind concentrate in water, stirring.
• In a 10- to 12-inch heavy skillet heat oil over moderate heat until hot but not smoking and cook mustard seeds about 30 seconds. Stir in onion mixture and cook, stirring, until fragrant, 6 to 8 minutes. Add fillets and cook 1 minute on each side. Add tamarind mixture and cook, gently stirring occasionally, until fish is just cooked through, 6 to 8 minutes.
