Clean the Shol fish pieces thoroughly and marinate with a pinch of turmeric powder and salt. Set aside.

Heat mustard oil in a heavy-bottomed pan or pot over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully add the marinated fish pieces and fry until golden brown on all sides. Remove the fish and set aside.

In the same pan, add a little more mustard oil if needed. Add cumin seeds and bay leaves, and let them splutter. Then, add the chopped onions and sauté until they turn golden brown.

Once the gravy starts boiling, gently add the fried fish pieces back into the pot. Cover the pot and let it simmer on low heat for about 20-25 minutes, or until the potatoes are tender and the fish is cooked through.
