COCONUT CURRY FISH

Steps:

• Bring the water and rice to a boil in a pot. Cover, reduce heat to low, and simmer 45 minutes.
• Heat the oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Stir in the onion and garlic, and cook 1 minute. Mix in cod, and season with curry powder, chili powder, turmeric, cumin, salt, and pepper.

FISH CURRY (KODAVAS-STYLE)

Steps:

• Cut each mackerel into 2 pieces and make a few cuts on the surface of the fish, so the marinade can permeate the inside of the fillets. Place fish into a bowl and add 1 1/2 tablespoons ground turmeric, 1 tablespoon tamarind paste, 2 teaspoons salt, and 2 to 3 cups water. Stir to dissolve salt and soak fish in the marinade, about 10 minutes.
• Discard liquid and rinse fish twice under cold running water. Return fish to a bowl and add chili powder, remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons ground turmeric, 1 tablespoon tamarind paste, and salt to taste. Mix well and set aside.
• Combine cumin seeds, coriander seeds, black peppercorns, and mustard seeds in a dry skillet and toast over medium-low heat until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes, shaking skillet repeatedly so spices don't burn.
• Remove coconut meat from coconut and chop. Combine toasted spices, coconut, garlic, and ginger in a mortar and pestle and grind into a paste, adding a little water as necessary to get the consistency of the masala right. Mix in onions and green chili.
• Heat oil in a heavy pot. Add masala paste and 1 1/2 cups water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Add marinated fish and check water level. You might need to add more water. Simmer until fish flakes easily with a fork and sauce has thickened, about 15 minutes. Season with salt to taste.
