- Black Peppercorns- 8
- Tamarind Juice/Pulp- 4 tbsp
- Salt- 1/2 tsp

- Salt- 3/4 tsp
- Groundnut Oil or any white oil - 3 tbsp

Preparation:

- Take thick steaks/fillets of King Fish/Surmai. Wash and pat dry. Set aside.
- Dry roast the Coriander seeds, Cumin seeds, Black Peppercorns & Kashmiri Chillies in a pan on low heat for 2-3 minutes. Set aside to cool.
- Soak small lemon sized tamarind in water to take out pulp/juice. Once soaked, take out 4 tbsp juice from it. You can use readymade tamarind pulp too but use less quantity since that tends to be very sour.
- To make the Masala Paste, add the roasted & cooled spices in a grinder and grind to a coarse powder. Now add the tamarind pulp and 1/2 tsp salt. Grind it to a smooth paste by adding 3-4 tbsp water.
- Grate the onions and slit the green chillies.
- Prepare the coconut milk by blending together coconut pulp with water. Strain the coconut using a cloth or sieve/strainer. You can also use readymade coconut milk.

Process:

- Heat the groundnut oil in a pan and add the slit green chillies. Give a stir and add the grated onion. Mix and fry on medium heat for around 5-6 mins till onion changes colour.
- Now add the ginger garlic paste, give a mix and fry on low heat for 2 mins.
- Add the Masala paste (made in the grinder) and mix it well.
- Add the turmeric & red chilli powders and fry on medium heat for 4-5 mins till oil separates.
- Now add 1 cup coconut milk and 200 ml water and give a mix. Add 3/4 tsp salt. Cook on low heat for around 2-3 mins till oil separates.
- Give a mix and add the King/Surmai fish steaks and give a gentle stir.
- Cover & cook on low heat for around 15 mins.
- Shake the pan gently to mix.
- Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and simmer for around 2 mins.
- Serve with white rice.
