Coconut Fish Curry

My daughter just loves fish curry. So thought of making fish curry yesterday. I had a fresh coconut that i brought a while ago and so wanted to use it before it gets spoiled. So i goggled for a recipe of fish curry with coconut in it. I got a few links and made one which is a mixture of all the links. But luckily it turned out to be very tasty and it did not take too much time to cook also. Below is the recipe.

Fish Cut into Pieces
Onions - 1
Coconut - 1
Ginger
Garlic
Tamarind
Chillies
Curry leaves
Fennel seeds
Urad daal
Jeera
Garam Masala
Coriander Leaves(Cilantro)
Salt
Chili powder


Cut the fish into pieces and keep it aside. In a blender mix the Onions. Coconut, Ginger, Garlic, Tamarind and green chillies. Add some water so that it turns into a thick paste. Heat Oil in a pan and add curry leaves, Fennel seeds, Jeera and Urad daal seeds a let them splitter. Then add the paste made above. Add Salt and Chilli powder as per your taste. Add the Fish pieces and let them cook on medium heat for about 25 to 30 minutes. Just before switching off add little bit Garam Masala and coriander leaves. Make sure that you don't mix the curry after the fish is cooked. I made this mistake the first time i cooked fish and it was a disaster.
