Instructions for Aloo Bilahi Maas Recipe - Assamese Fish Curry With Potatoes And Tomatoes

To begin making the Aloo Bilahi Maas Recipe, marinate the fish pieces in 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder and salt.

Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a heavy bottomed pan and fry the fish pieces from both the sides.

Remove the fish pieces and keep them aside. In the same pan, add the remaining oil, bay leaf, red chilies and cumin seeds. Stir it for about 30 seconds.

Next add onion, garlic and little salt and saute it for about two minutes on medium heat.

After 2 minutes, add tomatoes and saute well. Cook till the tomatoes are mushy and oil oozes out.

Once the tomatoes are mushy, add the mashed potatoes, turmeric powder, cumin powder and mix well till you get a thick gravy.

Add water and mix again. Bring it to a boil and cook for about a minute.

Add the fried fish pieces, garam masala powder and salt. Reduce the heat to medium. Cook it covered for about 5-7 minutes till you find oil rise to the top.

Add coriander leaves and simmer for about a minute. Serve hot.
