In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat about half of the vegetable oil over medium-high heat. Add the thinly sliced onions and cook, stirring frequently, until deeply caramelized and golden brown. This can take 20-30 minutes. Remove the caramelized onions with a slotted spoon and set aside, reserving the oil in the pot.

While the onions are caramelizing, season the fish fillets with salt, pepper, cumin, coriander, turmeric, allspice, and cinnamon. Dredge the fish lightly in flour if desired for a crispier exterior.
