Making hot, spicy and sour Durban fish curry - You have to try this one!

  • Living along the coast, fish curry was almost a staple as for the longest time the seas around Durban provided a bounty of seafood. Fishing was the weekend pastime, especially during winter when there was the sardine run as well as larger fish like shad that followed. Here is my version of a deliciously hot, spicy and sour Durban fish curry.
    Ingredients
    500g Steenbrass (or fish of choice)
    To marinate
    1 tsp mixed masala
    1/2 tsp salt
    1 tbs soy sauce
    Fresh cracked black pepper
    Splash of lemon juice
    For braising
    Dry spice mix:
    1 tsp Whole Dhania seeds
    1 tsp mustard seeds
    1 tsp mixed dhania and jeera
    Wet grind
    handful of curry leaves
    5 cloves garlic
    2 green chillies
    small handful of dhania leaves
    1 medium onion
    1/2 cup oil
    2 tbs mixed masala
    1 tsp hurdee (tumeric)
    1 tsp rough salt
    2 tbs imlee (tamarind)
    Serve with some soft roti or hard porridge (puthu). There is a popular saying that fish curry gets even better if kept overnight and eaten the next day!

      Hake fillets are not very firm so it will tend to break up in the curry. What you can attempt is to make the "gravy" and then place the hake fillets in at the end and allow them to gently poach in the gravy. We use whole baby hake in our biryani recipe sometimes though
