Ingredients

- 3 tablespoons fresh ginger, grated
- 3 green chilies, finely chopped
- 2 teaspoons ground turmeric
- 1 can (400 ml) coconut milk
- 6 cardamom pods
- 3 whole cloves
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 6 curry leaves
- Salt, to taste
- Black pepper, to taste
- 500 grams fresh halibut, cut into chunks
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
Instructions
-
Prepare the Base: Begin by heating the vegetable oil in a large pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, add the finely chopped onions. Sauté the onions for 1 to 2 minutes until they start to soften and become translucent.
-
Incorporate the Aromatics: Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, finely chopped green chilies, and ground turmeric to the pan. Continue to cook for an additional 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly, until the mixture is fragrant and the garlic and ginger are softened.
-
Simmer the Sauce: Pour the coconut milk into the pan, stirring well to combine with the aromatic mixture. Add the cardamom pods, whole cloves, cinnamon stick, and curry leaves. Season with salt and black pepper to taste. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.
-
Cook the Fish: Once the sauce is boiling, carefully add the halibut chunks to the pan. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for about 5 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flaky.
-
Serve: To serve, place the fish pieces on banana leaves or a serving platter. Spoon the rich, aromatic sauce over the fish, ensuring each piece is generously covered.
This Green Fish Curry pairs beautifully with Coconut and Cashew Rice, making it an excellent choice for a satisfying and flavorful meal that comes together in just about 20 minutes.
