Fish Head Curry

1  cup tamarind water water

3-4 tablespoons oil

2 cups water

4-6 okras, cut into halves diagonally

2 fresh tomatoes quartered

4 gren chilies slice diagonally

½ cup coconut milk

Salt to taste

Spice Paste:

3 packet Baba’s curry powder mix with ½ cup of water

5 clove garlic thinly slice

9 shallots thinly slice

1 tbsp mix fenugereek

3 strig curry leaves

Directions:

Heat up oil sauté the slice garlic, shallots and curry leaves till fragrant, Add in the curry paste and continue sautee till oil surface. Add water and allow to simmer and a bit thick.

Add in the fish head and cook until it change colour

Mix the tamarind pulp and water using your fingers, extract the juice out of the tamarind pulp, discard the tamarind pulp and the seeds and save the tamarind juice.

Add the tamarind juice into the pot, follow by the water. Bring it to boil before adding okra. After the okra is half-cooked, add the tomatoes. Cover the pot and let cook for a few minutes until the fish is cooked. Add salt and sugar (if using) to taste.
