Instructions
  1. Soak khus khus over night or for minimum 2-3 hours in water. Drain the water and collect the khus khus in a grinder jar and grind to make a fine paste. Keep aside
  2. Clean and wash the fishes well. Drain water nicely and coat the fishes with turmeric powder and keep aside. Do not cut into pieces as the fish is cooked whole.
  3. Heat 1/2 cup of mustard oil in a wok, add kalonji and allow it to crackle for a second.
  4. Now add the fishes gently and fry till golden in color.
  5. If the oil reduces, you can add more from sides. Be careful while frying as the fish may burst.
  6. When the fishes are golden in color, add the khus khus paste in the wok and gently stir in.
  7. You may add little water from the sides if the paste is too thick.
  8. Season the curry with salt and add green chilies as well.
  9. Allow the curry to get a boil and then cook for another 7-8 mins in low flames and lid closed. Do not stir much.
  10. Turn off the gas and pour in some mustard oil on top for that rustic flavor and serve hot with plain rice.
