This fish curry recipe was passed to me by mother in law. It is a method from Maharasthra a state in India that uses grated coconut as the main base. It is simple to make and best eaten the next day as the flavours absorb better (any left-over curries for the matter always tastes better the next day). I have modified the original recipe to suit own taste.
