Ingredients
  

  • ½ Kg Tuna Fish cut into pieces
  • ½ tsp Turmeric Powder
  • 1 tsp Red Chilli Powder
  • 2 tbsp Vinegar
  • Salt to taste
  • Small ball of tamarind soaked in luke warm water
  • 2 Green chillies, slit
  • 1 small Onion chopped

For the Masala Paste

  • 7 - 8 Dried Red Chillies
  • ½ cup Grated coconut
  • 2 tsp Coriander seeds
  • 1 tsp Cumin seeds
  • 6 Garlic cloves
  • 1 inch Ginger

Instructions
 

  • Heat 2 tbsp oil in a vessel and add 1 medium chopped onion. Fry the onion for a minute or until translucent.
  • When the onion is translucent, then add the masala paste and fry for at least 2 minutes to get rid of the raw smell of the ingredients.
  • Now rinse the blender jar with water and add this water to make the curry. Also, add the tamarind juice and then cover the vessel, and bring the curry to a boil.
  • Next, add the tuna fish to the curry and allow it to cook for another 5 minutes or until done. Check for salt and add if needed. I also like to add a few green chillies to the curry at this stage.
  • Switch off the flame once the fish is cooked. Serve Tuna Fish Curry with steamed rice or rice rotis.

Notes

  1.  You can use any firm fish for this recipe
