Spicy Tangy Tengra Fish Curry

Let’s share another Bengali recipe. I found Tengra fish in the store in very small sizes. I was really very disappointed. But when I back home I decided to make Spicy tangy Tengra fish curry. Tengra fish has some nutrition benefits too like it is full of vitamin C, Vitamin A, Calcium and iron too.

 

Ingredients

• Tengra Fish -100gm (marinate with salt and turmeric powder for 10 mints)
• Mustard oil - 4 tbsp
• 3 finely chopped onion
• 1/2tbsp black cumin seed
• 1/2 tbsp chopped garlic
• 1/2 tsp Red chili powder
• 1/2 tsp coriander powder
• 1 big Tomato (chopped)
• 1/2 tsp turmeric powder
• 2 tbsp coriander leaves finely chopped
• 3-4 sliced green chili
• Salt to taste

 

Preparation 

Spicy Tangy Tengra Fish Curry

• Heat oil in a pan and fry marinated fishes until they are golden brown in colour and keep aside.
• Now again add some oil to the pan and add black cumin seeds. Now add the chopped onions and keep frying until onion changes colour to slightly golden.
• Add the chopped garlic and ginger paste and mix it properly.
• Add sliced green chili and chopped tomato to it and keep frying until tomato loses raw smell.
• By this time you will be able to see little oil oozing out. At this time add red chili powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder with pinch of sugar. Fry it for a minute.
• Once the oil separating from masala adds 1 cup warm water to it and adds fish and put the flame on medium with cover.
• Adjust salt.
• After 7-10 mints open the lid and check for your desired consistency of the gravy.
• Sprinkle coriander leaves and sliced green chili to it. With warm rice this curry goes very nice.
