Ingredients:

PASTE:

• 5 teaspoons Sahara Foods Fish & Prawn Masala
• 6 teaspoons Sahara Foods Crushed Garlic
• 1 tablespoon Sahara Foods Ground Ginger
• 2 tablespoons Tamarind puree
• 1/2 a red onion , chopped
• 6 tbsp water (add more, as needed)

REST OF THE CURRY:

• 3 tablespoons vegetable oil
  
• 1/2 teaspoons black mustard seeds
  
• 1/2 red onion – thinly sliced
  
• 1 tablespoon tomato paste
  
• 2/3 cup tomato passata or crushed tomato
  
• 2/3 cup water
  
• 400ml full fat coconut milk
  
• 3/4 tsp fine table salt
  
• 1 1/2 teaspoons sugar
  
• 1/4 teaspoon pure chilli powder
  
• 1 tomato , cut into 8 wedges then into
• 2.5cm chunks
  
• 600g firm-fleshed white fish , cut into
• 3cm cubes

FOR SERVING:

• 1/4 cup fresh coriander
  
• Basmati rice

INSTRUCTIONS:

1. Place the paste ingredients in a tall jug or milkshake container (something that fits the head of a blender stick) then blitz on high for 5 to 10 seconds until the onion is pureed. Add more water if needed to make it puree. Put to the side.
2. Sizzle black mustard seeds: Heat oil over medium heat in a large pot. Add black mustard seeds and let them sizzle for 30 seconds – careful, they might pop!
3. Saute onion: Add red onion and cook for 3 minutes until edges start to tinge with gold.
4. Add the paste and cook for 3 minutes – to evaporate water, make spices bloom and cook garlic & ginger.
5. Turn heat up to medium high. Add tomato paste and tomato pulp, cook for 2 minutes.
6. Add water, coconut milk, sugar, salt and chilli powder. Stir, then bring to simmer, low heat so it’s bubbling gently.
7. Simmer for 2 minutes, and add the tomato
8. Simmer for another 3 minutes, stirring every now and then – the sauce should be thickened (not watery) as it will get looser again when the fish is added because fish will drop some juices.
9. Add fish, stir, cook for 3 to 4 minutes until fish easily flakes.
10. Remove from stove and transfer to a serving bowl. Garnish with coriander. Serve with basmati rice!
