Recipe Notes
Expert Tips for the Best Indian Fish Curry:
- For a richer flavor, soak the cashews in warm water for 15 minutes before adding them to the curry.
- Adjust the amount of chili powder to your preferred level of spiciness. Start with less and add more gradually.
- Don't overcook the fish! Overcooked fish will be dry and tough. Cook just until it is flaky and opaque.
- For an even more authentic taste, try using a mix of different types of chilies for a complex flavor profile.
