  • Mix and sauté the onions till soft and translucent.Do not brown the onions. Stir constantly until onions are transparent.
  • Add turmeric powder, black pepper powder and enough thin coconut milk to cover the ingredients in the pan.
  • Do not add the thick coconut milk yet, as it could curdle. Add fish and a pinch of salt.
  • Bring it to boil and immediately turn the heat down. Simmer gently for 6-7 minutes until cooked.
  • Add the quartered tomato. Do not add tomatoes at the beginning as they will cause the curry to curdle.
