INGREDIENTS: 
King Fish - 250 grams Cleaned
Kodampuli - 3 or 4 Boil in water
Curry Leaves - 2 sprigs
Red Chilli Powder - 3 teaspoons
Turmeric Powder - 1/4 teaspoon
Fenugreek - 1/4 teaspoon
Coconut Oil - 2 tablespoon
Ginger - 1 1/2 inch piece
Garlic - 3 cloves
Salt - To taste

DIRECTIONS: 

1. Remove the skin, and cut the fish into 1 x 2 inch size rectangular pieces, clean well, drain and keep aside.

2. Grind the red chilli powder, turmeric powder, ginger, and garlic with little water, to make a smooth paste.

3. Heat oil in a pan, put the mustard seeds, and when they start sputtering, add the curry leaves, and the grinded paste.

4. Fry the paste at a medium heat, till the paste becomes consistent.

5. Add the water containing the extract of Kodampuli, check the level of sourness.

6. When the water starts boiling add the fish pieces, and salt. Add water enough to cover the pieces.

7. Cook at a gentle heat. Keep stirring lightly (to avoid breaking of fish) in between, or just shake the pan.

8. When the pieces are almost cooked, increase the heat and cook till the gravy thickens, and the oil is visible.

9. Serve hot with rice, or tapiocca. This dish could be preserved for a few days.
