Instructions
- 1Cut the about 680 g firm white fish fillets into 2.54 cm pieces. Cut the 1 medium eggplant into 2.54 cm cubes.
- 2Heat the 2 tablespoons of avocado oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat (about 175°C / 175°C). Add the 1 medium onion, 1 tablespoon ginger, and 2 cloves garlic. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is softened and translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes.
- 3Stir in the 2 tablespoons of curry powder and 1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder. Cook, stirring constantly, until fragrant, about 1 minute.
- 4Add the 2 tablespoons of tomato paste and 1 can of coconut milk to the pot. Stir well to combine everything, then bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.
- 5Add the cubed 1 medium eggplant to the simmering liquid. Cover the pot and cook until the eggplant is tender when pierced with a fork, about 5 to 7 minutes.

- 7Remove the pot from the heat. Stir in the 1 tablespoon of lime juice.
- 8Serve the fish curry immediately, garnished with the 1/4 cup cilantro.
