- Vegetable Oil: 1 tbsp vegetable oil
- Cinnamon Stick: 1 cinnamon stick
- Clove: 4 whole cloves
- Cardamom Pod: 4 green cardamom pods
- Black Peppercorn: 1/2 tsp whole black peppercorns
- Curry Leaf: 10 fresh curry leaves

Directions
- Stir the lemon juice and 1 tsp salt into the fish pieces and set aside. Heat the oil in a large pan. Add the whole spices and curry leaves, cook for 3-4 mins, then add the onions. Fry until the onions are soft, then add the chillies, ginger and garlic. Tip in the tomatoes and the remaining spices and cook, uncovered, on a low heat for about 5-8 mins. Stir frequently to prevent the spices sticking and burning.
