Easy fish curry

Thanks to the ready-made curry paste, Indian fish stew is super simple and the cavalcade of spices in the cupboards remains moderate.

Ingredients · Servings 4
  • 3 tablespoons oil
  • 1 onion
  • ½ teaspoon salt
  • 2 tablespoons curry paste (for example Patak's Tikka Masala or Pirkka Tandoori)
  • 4 tomatoes
  • 3 garlic cloves
  • 1 tablespoon ginger paste (or grated fresh ginger)
  • 1 small can (160 ml) coconut milk
  • 300 g white fish (for example, thawed frozen cod)
  • rice and coriander and plain yogurt
Method · 35 min
  1. Peel and chop the onion. Heat the oil in a saucepan and fry the onion in the oil with salt for 10 minutes. Add the curry paste and fry for a couple more minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, remove the stems from the tomatoes, peel and chop the garlic cloves. Puree the tomatoes, garlic and ginger paste in a blender or with a hand blender until smooth. Add to the pan and fry for about 10 minutes. Finally, add the coconut milk.
  3. Cut the fish into pieces (or use frozen fish cubes). If you want, you can fry the pieces a little in another pan.
  4. Finally, add the fish to the sauce and let it simmer over low heat for about 5 minutes. Serve with rice.
