Prep Time: 10 mins

Cook Time: 10 mins

Servings: 3-4 people

Ingredients: 

1 425g can of BTM Jack Mackerel in Brine

1 big onion, finely chopped

4-5 cloves garlic, sliced

3 green chilies, sliced

few pandan leaves

2-3 tbsp frying oil 

hand full curry leaves

1 cup coconut milk

1/2 tsp turmeric powder

1-2 tbsp curry powder

1 inch stick cinnamon

1 large tomato, sliced

hand full coriander leaves

salt to taste

Instructions: 

1. Drain the fish brine from the BTM canned fish

2. Place a thick bottomed pan over low medium heat and pour in the oil. Heat for 1 minute. 

3.Add the washed curry leaves, cinnamon, pandan leaves and saute for 1-2 minutes. Add the sliced onions, garlic, green chilies and cook for 3 minutes.  

4. Add the turmeric powder, curry powder and saute well. Let the ingredients turn mild golden brown and then add the tomatoes to soften while the ingredients turn to a semi-liquid paste (this will take less than 10 minutes, increase the heat if necessary but avoid burning the paste). 

5. Reduce heat to low and pour in the coconut milk. Leave it to slow simmer for another 5-6 minutes. Season with desired amount of salt. 

6. Once the coconut milk turns thick and slightly changes colour, gently add the BTM canned fish chunks into the boiling gravy. Avoid stirring hard. Cover with lid, set to slow simmer for 10-12 minutes or until the gravy thickens. 

7. Season with fresh coriander leaves and serve warm.
