- 1
Heat vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and sautรฉ until softened and translucent, about 5-7 minutes.
- 2
Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pot and cook for another minute until fragrant.
- 3
Stir in the chopped tomatoes and tomato paste. Cook for 2-3 minutes, stirring to combine.
- 4
Add the coriander powder, cumin powder, turmeric powder, chopped chili pepper (if using), salt, and black pepper. Stir well to coat the ingredients.
- 5
Pour in the coconut milk and water. Bring the mixture to a simmer, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 15 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
- 6
Add the cut okra to the stew. Stir gently, cover, and cook for another 10-15 minutes, or until the okra is tender but not mushy.
- 7
Gently add the fish pieces to the stew. Ensure they are submerged in the liquid. Cover and simmer for 5-8 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Be careful not to overcook the fish.
- 8
Taste and adjust seasoning with salt and pepper if needed. Serve hot, garnished with a squeeze of fresh lime juice if desired.

- โTo prevent okra from becoming too slimy, you can lightly sautรฉ it separately before adding it to the stew, or add a splash of lemon or lime juice towards the end of cooking.
- โUse firm white fish that holds its shape well during cooking.
- โAdjust the amount of chili pepper to your preferred level of spiciness.
