Tilapia in Tamarind Sauce

Tilapia in Tamarind Sauce

Ingredients

  • 1 pound tilapia fillets
  • 1 teaspoon tamarind paste
  • 1/4 cup hot water
  • 1 (1/2 inch) piece fresh ginger, grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, pressed
  • salt to taste
  • 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
  • 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
  • 1 teaspoon lemon juice, or to taste


Directions

  1. Rinse tilapia fillets and dry with paper towels. Dissolve tamarind paste in hot water in a bowl; stir ginger, garlic, salt, black pepper, coriander, turmeric, and cumin into tamarind mixture to make a paste. Rub paste over fish and let stand 15 minutes to absorb flavors (or longer in refrigerator if desired).
  2. Heat vegetable oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium heat. Cook fish with tamarind paste in the hot oil until the flesh is opaque and flaky, about 4 minutes on the first side and 2 minutes on the second side. Drizzle with lemon juice.
