AMBUL THIYAL (SRI LANKAN SOUR CURRY OF FISH)

I've posted this after a request from another member, I've never tried it as we don't eat fish but its copied from "The Complete Asian Cookbook" by a fantastic cook Charmaine Solomon. She states that in Sri Lanka the acid used for this dish is called "goraka" but she has used tamarind as its easily available.

Steps:

  • Wash and dry fish, cut into serving pieces.
  • Soak tamarind in vinegar until its soft. (If tamarind is very dry, heat in an enamel saucepan for a few minutes adding some of the water).
  • When cool enough to handle, squeeze the tamarind in the liquid to dissolve the pulp, strain through a fine nylon sieve and discard seeds and fibres.
  • Put all ingredients into a pan (preferably an enamel or stainless steel pan) and bring to the boil.
  • Reduce heat and simmer uncovered until fish is cooked and gravy is thick.
  • Shake pan or turn fish pieces carefully once or twice during cooking.
  • Serve with white rice.

  • Mix Garcinia Cambogia, black pepper, salt, chili powder and garlic powder. Add half a cup of water and make it to a thick batter-like paste. You might need to add or reduce the amount of water you have to add to get the right consistency.
  • Cut the tuna pieces into somewhat thin and flat pieces. I like my fish pieces a bit smaller, so mine are about 3 inches wide and 1 inch thick.
  • Now apply a thin coating of oil to your clay pot. (if you don't have a clay pot use any other heavy bottom skillet that takes longer to cool down). This makes sure that pieces aren't going to stick to the pot. And also it roasts the fish pieces a little bit, which adds a nice roasted flavor.
  • Then dip one piece into the Ambul Thiyal batter and cover it very well with the Ambul Thiyal paste. Now place it in the clay pot. wider side down.
