Fish Curry Ingredients:
For the Fish:

  • 1Β½ lb. firm white fish (such as grouper, tilapia, or cod), cut into 2" pieces
  • 1 tsp. Diamond Crystal or Β½ tsp. Morton kosher salt
  • 1 tsp. Kashmiri chile powder or Β½ tsp. cayenne pepper
  • Β½ tsp. ground turmeric
  • 3 Tbsp. grapeseed oil or vegetable oil
For the Curry and Assembly:
  • 3 Tbsp. grapeseed oil or vegetable oil
  • 1 tsp. brown mustard seeds
  • 3–4 fresh or dried curry leaves (optional)
  • Β½ tsp. asafetida (optional)
  • 1 3" piece ginger, peeled, finely grated
  • 5 garlic cloves, finely grated
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 large red onion, chopped
  • 1 tsp. ground turmeric
  • 1 14-oz. can crushed tomatoes
  • 1 13.5-oz. can unsweetened coconut milk (not low-fat)
  • 1 cup low-sodium vegetable or chicken broth
  • Thinly sliced red onion, cilantro leaves with tender stems; cooked basmati rice, wild rice, or warm naan; and lime wedges (for serving)
Preparation:
For the Fish:

  1. Combine fish, salt, chile powder, and turmeric in a medium bowl. Gently toss fish to evenly coat in spices using your hands.
  2. Heat oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Cook fish pieces in batches until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side (the fish won’t be cooked all the way through). Transfer fish to a plate.
For the Curry and Assembly:
  1. Heat grapeseed oil in a medium Dutch oven or other heavy pot over medium-high heat. Add a few mustard seeds to the pot. When seeds start to wiggle and pop, reduce heat to medium and add curry leaves (if using), asafetida (if using), and remaining mustard seeds. Cover the pot and cook spices, swirling, until mustard seeds start popping more gradually, about 30 seconds. Uncover the pot and return heat to medium-high.
  2. Add ginger and garlic. Cook, stirring constantly, until beginning to brown, about 1 minute. Add chopped onion and a big pinch of salt. Cook, stirring often and reducing heat if needed to prevent burning, until onion is golden brown and jammy, 7–9 minutes.
  3. Stir in turmeric, then tomatoes. Bring to a simmer. Reduce heat to medium and cook, stirring often, until tomatoes are glossy and darkened in color and oil starts to separate around edges of pot, 5–7 minutes.
  4. Add coconut milk and broth. Stir to combine; season with salt. Bring curry to a simmer, then reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, 10 minutes.
  5. Add fish to curry. Return to a gentle simmer and cook until fish is just cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, about 4 minutes. Taste and season with more salt if needed.
  6. Divide fish curry among bowls. Top with sliced red onion and cilantro. Serve with rice and lime wedges for squeezing over.
