Goan Kingfish Curry is always in demand:)

Ingredients:
6-7 small pieces of kingfish 
3/4 cup grated coconut
11/2 tbsp coriander seeds
6 dry red chilies
1 medium size onion,chopped
2 garlic cloves
8-9 peppercorn
1/2 tsp turmeric
2 small pieces of tamarind (amtan) 
2 green chilies, slit lenghtwise
1 tbsp oil
Salt to taste
Water as per requirement
Method:
Marinate fish with salt for 30 mins. (Use enough salt because you will wash the fish again)
Grind together coconut,coriander seeds,dry red chilly,garlic,pepper,tamarind, and turmeric into a smooth paste. You will have to add some water while grinding to get the correct consistency.
Heat oil in a pan and add the chopped onions to it along with the green chilies. Fry the onions till golden brown.
Add the coconut paste. Pour water as per the gravy you require. Add salt.Bring this to a boil.
Wash the fish and add it to the gravy. Boil for 10 mins or until fish is cooked.
Serve the Kingfish curry with hot steamed rice. 
If you like the curry less spicy then reduce the quantity of peppercorn and red chilly.
Tips:
You can even add tomatoes to the gravy. Just chop 1 medium size tomato into small pieces and fry it with the onions(fry the onions first and then add tomatoes) till oil separates.
