Cooking Instructions
Follow our step-by-step guide on how to make Catfish Curry with Rice.
Step 1
Start by gathering all your ingredients to make the cooking process smooth and enjoyable.
Step 2
Rinse the catfish fillets under cold water, then cut them into bite-sized pieces, about 2 inches each.
Step 3
In a medium saucepan, combine the catfish with water, chopped onions, salt, and pepper.
Step 4
Bring this mixture to a lively boil, then lower the heat and let it simmer gently for about 8 minutes, or until the fish is tender but still holds its shape.
Step 5
Once done, use a slotted spoon to carefully transfer the catfish to a serving platter, covering it with foil to keep it warm and cozy.
Step 6
Next, turn up the heat and bring the cooking liquid in the saucepan back to a boil.
Step 7
Let it bubble away until it reduces to about 1 cup, then keep it warm over low heat.
Step 8
While that’s happening, grab a small bowl and mix together flour, curry powder, and butter until you have a smooth paste.
Step 9
Roll this mixture into small balls, about the size of a teaspoon.
Step 10
Now, return the cooking liquid to a gentle simmer.
Step 11
As you stir slowly and continuously, drop in the little balls of paste one at a time, allowing each to dissolve before adding the next.
Step 12
This is where the magic happens! Cook the sauce for about 5 minutes, or until it thickens to a rich, gravy-like consistency.
Step 13
Don’t forget to taste it and adjust the seasoning if needed; this is your chance to make it just right.
Step 14
Finally, pour that luscious gravy over the catfish and serve it alongside fluffy, hot cooked rice.
Step 15
For a lovely finishing touch, sprinkle some chopped parsley on top for garnish.
Step 16
Sit back, savor the delightful flavors, and enjoy your delicious meal!.
