Step 1
Cut the 1 lb fish fillets into 2-inch chunks and season with salt. Set aside while you prepare the sauce.
Step 2
Heat 2 tbsp oil in a skillet over medium. Add 1 sliced onion and 10 curry leaves, cook until onion is soft and golden, about 5 minutes.
Step 3
Add 2 chopped tomatoes and 2 tbsp curry powder. Cook, stirring, until tomatoes break down and mixture is thick, about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Pour in 1 cup coconut milk and 1/2 cup water. Bring to a simmer, then add the fish. Cook gently until fish is opaque and flakes easily, about 8 minutes.
Step 5
Taste and adjust salt. Serve hot with rice or bread.
