  • 2 pounds white carp, cut into large chunks
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • 1 tablespoon red chile powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground turmeric
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons salt
  • 1/4 cup tamarind pulp
  • 1 cup warm water

  1. Place fish in a bowl; add 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, 1 tablespoon chile powder, turmeric, and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and allow to marinate for about 10 minutes.
  2. Place tamarind pulp in a bowl and pour warm water over it. Squeeze tamarind to extract juice.
