    Method

    1. Blend the onion and garlic cloves in a food processor with 1 tbsp water until smooth.
    2. Heat the oil in a lidded saucepan over a medium heat, add the onion paste and 3⁄4 tsp salt and fry for 3-4 mins until golden. Add 4 tbsp water. Once it’s evaporated and the oil has risen to the surface, add the ground spices. Cook, stirring, for 1 min.
    3. Stir in the coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer. Reduce the heat to low and cook for 2 mins. Stir in the fish, cover and cook for 8 mins, or until cooked through.
    4. Add the chillies and cook for a further 2 mins, making sure not to stir, as this will break up the fish. Add the coriander and remove from the heat. Serve with steamed rice and lime wedges for squeezing over, if you like.
