Step 1
In a skillet over medium heat, combine 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/4 cup white vinegar, 2 bay leaves, 1 tbsp curry leaves, and 1 tsp peppercorns. Bring to a simmer, about 2 minutes.
Step 2
Add 1 lb cooked white fish fillets, breaking them into large flakes with a spoon. Stir gently to coat with the sauce.
Step 3
Cook over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until the liquid reduces and the fish is heated through, about 8-10 minutes. The sauce should cling to the flakes and look slightly glossy.
Step 4
Remove from heat and serve hot with rice or as a filling for tacos. Garnish with extra curry leaves if desired.
