Directions

Step 1
Clean and marinate fish with a pinch of turmeric and salt. Set aside. Blend all 'Masala Paste' ingredients with a little water to a very fine paste.
Step 2
Heat oil in a pot. Add chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Add green chilies and curry leaves, sauté for 1 minute.
Step 3
Add the ground masala paste and cook on medium-low heat for 10-12 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the raw smell disappears and oil starts to separate.
Step 4
Add 1-1.5 cups of water to adjust gravy consistency. Bring to a boil, then add kokum and salt. Simmer for 5 minutes.
Step 5
Gently add the marinated fish pieces to the simmering gravy. Cook on medium-low heat for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through. Do not overcook.
Step 6
Serve hot with steamed rice.
