Rawas Fish Curry (Indian Salmon Curry)
A delicious and comforting fish curry shared by my dearest friend Vinita Dennis. With a few personal tweaks, this flavourful curry has become a family favourite. The combination of dried chillies, fenugreek, kokum, and fresh coriander creates a beautifully balanced curry that pairs perfectly with steamed rice.
youtube.com/shorts/4W5jJd8gkp...
Ingredients
For the Fish
300 grams Rawas (Indian Salmon), cleaned and washed well
Salt, to taste
¼ tsp turmeric powder
½ tsp chilli powder
Marinate the fish with the salt, turmeric powder, and chilli powder. Set aside while preparing the curry paste.
For the Curry Paste
2 dried Bedgi chillies
3 dried Kashmiri chillies
4 curry leaves
½ tsp fenugreek seeds
1 medium onion, sliced
1 tsp ginger-garlic paste
Small ball of tamarind
For the Curry
1 medium onion, finely chopped
Few curry leaves
5 cloves garlic (about 10 g), lightly crushed
5 kokum petals
¼ cup finely chopped coriander leaves
Salt, to taste
Coconut oil, for cooking
Water, as required
Method
Prepare the Curry Paste
Soak the Bedgi chillies, Kashmiri chillies, and fenugreek seeds in a little warm water.
Add the tamarind, ginger-garlic paste, and curry leaves.
Allow everything to soak for about 30 minutes.
Transfer the soaked ingredients to a mixer jar.
Add the sliced onion and just enough water.
Grind to a smooth, thick paste.
Prepare the Curry
Heat some coconut oil in a pan.
Add the crushed garlic and curry leaves. Sauté until fragrant.
Add the chopped onion and cook until lightly browned.
Add the ground masala paste along with a little water. Cook for a minute, stirring occasionally.
Add most of the chopped coriander leaves, reserving a little for garnish.
Add the kokum petals and gently place the marinated fish pieces into the curry.
Add enough water to achieve a good curry consistency.
Simmer gently until the fish is cooked through.
Check and adjust the salt if required.
Finish with the remaining coriander leaves.
Serve hot with steamed rice.
Tips
This curry works beautifully with King Fish (Surmai), fresh Bombay Duck (Bombil), and Golden Anchovies (Mandeli).
For an extra layer of flavour, marinate the fish and shallow-fry it lightly before adding it to the curry.
Avoid over-stirring once the fish is added to prevent the pieces from breaking.
A simple, homely fish curry packed with flavour and perfect for a comforting meal with rice. 🍛🐟

Jowar Dosas (Sorghum Flour Dosa)
Light, wholesome, and naturally crisp around the edges, Jowar Dosas are a wonderful breakfast option when you want something nutritious and delicious. Made with jowar flour and Bansi wheat flour—known for its low glycemic index, lower gluten content, and easy digestibility—these dosas require no fermentation and can be prepared in minutes.
You can also substitute Bansi wheat flour with regular whole wheat flour.
youtube.com/shorts/9HVD2GRUx-...
Ingredients
For the Dosa Batter
1 cup jowar flour (using a 200 ml measuring cup)
½ cup Bansi wheat flour (using a 100 ml measuring cup)
Salt to taste
Spices
1 tsp coriander powder
½ tsp cumin powder
½ tsp chilli flakes or 2–3 finely chopped green chillies
Other
Water, as required, to make a smooth pouring consistency batter (not too thick and not too thin)
Clarified butter (ghee) for cooking
Method
In a mixing bowl, combine the jowar flour, Bansi wheat flour, coriander powder, cumin powder, chilli flakes or green chillies, and salt.
Gradually add water and whisk well to form a smooth batter with a pouring consistency.
Heat a dosa pan or non-stick skillet and lightly brush it with clarified butter.
Stir the batter well before each dosa, as jowar flour tends to settle at the bottom.
Pour a ladleful of batter onto the hot pan and spread gently if required.
Cook on medium heat and brush the edges with a little clarified butter.
Once the underside is golden and crisp, remove from the pan.
Serve hot with chutney, ketchup, or enjoy as is.
Tips & Variations
Herbs You Can Add
Finely chopped coriander leaves
Finely chopped dill leaves
Roughly chopped fresh fenugreek (methi) leaves
Dried fenugreek leaves (kasuri methi)
Dried pizza seasoning
Additional Tips
Stir the batter before making each dosa to maintain an even consistency.
You can add finely chopped onions for additional flavour and texture.
These dosas are best served hot and fresh.
