Preparation of Chilly Fish:

Clean and cut the fish into cubes. Marinate it with 1 tbsp of soya sauce, 2 tsp corn flour, chilly powder and a little salt. Keep it aside for 15-20 minutes.

Meanwhile, chop the onions and capsicum into small cubes, slit the green chillies and finely chop the ginger , garlic and spring onions.

Heat oil in a pan and fry the fish until they are cooked and slightly brown. Drain it into another bowl and keep aside.

In the same pan, add more oil if required and add the chopped onions, green chillies, ginger and garlic. Fry until the onions are slightly transparent. Add the chopped capsicum. Fry for few minutes and then add the chopped spring onions. Fry for a couple more minutes.

Add the chilly sauce and the tomato sauce.Add water if required for gravy. Mix well.Add the fried fish, and give a stir to mix. Make sure not to break the fish pieces.

If more gravy is required or if the gravy is too thin, mix the remaining corn flour in ½ cup of water. Add this to the curry and let it slightly boil. Switch of the flame, sprinkle the pepper powder and garnish with chopped coriander leaves.
