Stir thoroughly until the curry powder is mixed well with no visible lumps of powder. Cover the pot and let it simmer for 20 min in a medium heat.

Take 1 golf ball size of tamarind and mix it with 1/4cup of water and mash with your finger until the pulp leaves the seeds. Sieve and pour this into the pot gently. Stir and let it simmer for another 10 min.

Once the consistency is right, add the fish gently and not stir it. Cover the lid and cook for 10 more min.
