Easy Fish Curry


Here's a nice easy way to make a fish curry, flavorful, spicy and made in a jiffy!

Ingredients:
  • one small chopped onion
  • a teaspoon of ginger/garlic paste
  • 2 dried chili's
  • 4 small tomatoes chopped
  • one can of canned Herring (rich in Omega 3), I get in World Market its German
  • 1/4 tamarind juice, I use dried tamarind (can be found in Indian store) soak in hot water and add juice
  • one tablespoon masala powder
  • salt to taste
Method:

  1. fry onion, ginger, garlic paste in canola oil
  2. add tomatoes, salt and masala powder and simmer on low until it reduces down to a paste/sauce - 15 minutes
  3. then add fish and tamarind and simmer for a further 10 minutes
  4. love simple meals like this when hubby needs a spicy dish and I am cooking something else at the same time!

Hope everyone's week is going well, what's your favorite fish?

  21. We do love herring here in Wisconsin with it's rich, German heritage. We usually eat it pickled, though. It is such a healthy fish to eat and I'd love to try this.

    Our favorite fish is grilled salmon.

  30. Such a lovely color! I love any kind of curry, but the Booze Hound does not, so I have to reserve it for when he travels or when we go out. I will save this recipe and hoard it all to myself!
