Goan Curried-Fish Stew Yield: 4 Servings
2 lbs sole fillets, cut into one-inch pieces 1/4 cup lemon juice, (from about 1 lemon) 1 1/4 ts salt 2 cloves garlic, smashed 4 ts fresh ginger, chopped 1 cup canned unsweetened coconut milk 1 Tbsp ground coriander 1 ts ground cumin 1 ts brown sugar 1/2 ts fresh ground black pepper 1/4 ts turmeric 1/8 ts cayenne pepper 3 Tbsp cooking oil 1 onion, chopped 1 tomato, chopped 4 jalapeno peppers, seeds and ribs removed, minced 3/4 cup water
In a glass or stainless-steel container, combine the sole, lemon juice, and 1/2 teaspoon of the salt. Let marinate at least 10 minutes. In a blender, puree the garlic and ginger with the coconut milk, coriander, cumin, brown sugar, black pepper, turmeric, and cayenne. In a large saucepan, heat the oil over moderate heat. Add the onion, cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 5 minutes. Add the tomato and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add the coconut mixture, the jalapenos, the water, and the remaining 3/4 teaspoon salt and bring slowly almost to a simmer, stirring frequently. Add the fish and 1 tablespoon of the marinade. Bring to a simmer and continue simmering until the fish is just done, 1 to 2 minutes.
