Goan caldine — yellow coconut fish curry, mild enough for Sunday guests. Coastal cooking logic: the fish leads, the gravy follows. Plate with plain rice — the gravy does the talking.

Instructions

1
Season the fish with salt and turmeric, and let it sit while the masala builds.
2
Fry the fish till the edges crisp and the colour turns pale gold — handle it like it's precious.
3
Soften the onions, add paste and tomato with the spices, and bhunao till thick and red.

Nestle the fish into the simmering gravy with the coconut milk; the residual heat finishes it.

Chef's tip

A final squeeze of lemon or lime right before serving wakes up every other flavour.
