  1. Mix the yogurt with the onion paste, red chilli powder, turmeric, ginger and garlic pastes and blend. Add the fish pieces to this and gently mix to coat well. Marinate for 2 hours.

  2. Heat 3 tbsps of the mustard oil on medium heat, in a deep pan till hot. Add the whole spices - cloves, cardamom, cinnamon, bay leaf and peppercorns - and fry till slightly darker. Now add the chopped onion and fry till transparent.

  3. Add the marinated fish and the marinade and mix gently but well. Season with salt as required. Stir ocassionally. Do this gently to avoid breaking the pieces of fish. Cook till fish is done.
