Yield Serves 6

Number Of Ingredients 15

1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1/2 teaspoon caraway seeds
1 pound tilapia fillets, cut into 1- to 2-inch pieces
1 cup plain, lowfat yogurt
1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
5 tablespoons vegetable oil
1 tablespoon black mustard seeds
1 medium red onion, finely chopped
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1 tablespoon curry powder
1 1/4 cups heavy cream
Salt
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh cilantro, for garnish

Steps:

  • 1. Mix together the turmeric, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and caraway seeds. Add the tilapia pieces and toss to coat. Cover and let sit for 30 minutes in the refrigerator.
  • 2. In a blender, combine the yogurt and flour and set aside. Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mustard seeds and cook, stirring, until sputtering and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the onion and cook, stirring, until translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the garlic and curry powder and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the cream and the yogurt mixture and bring to a simmer. Reduce the heat to low and simmer until the sauce is thick, about 5 minutes.
  • 3. In a nonstick pan, heat the remaining 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Gently fry the seasoned fish until crisp on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Add the yogurt mixture to the fried fish and simmer until fish is cooked through, about 5 minutes.
  • 4. Season with salt and serve hot, garnished with fresh cilantro.

I found this recipe to be a bit too complicated. It took me a lot longer to make than I expected.

The yogurt marinade didn't seem to do much for the fish. The curry was also a bit bland.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but I still enjoyed it. The fish was cooked perfectly and the curry was very flavorful.

I'm not usually a fan of fish curries, but this one was surprisingly good. The yogurt marinade made the fish really moist and the curry was creamy and flavorful. I'll definitely be making this again.

The flavors in this dish were amazing. The yogurt marinade really tenderized the fish and the curry was so flavorful. I served it with rice and it was a perfect meal.
