Method
 

Instructions
  1. In a large pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat.
  2. Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for an additional 1-2 minutes until fragrant.
  3. Add the turmeric powder, curry powder, and green chilies to the pan. Cook for about 1 minute, stirring frequently to prevent burning.
  4. Pour in the coconut milk and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir well to combine all the ingredients.
  5. Toss in the curry leaves and season with salt to taste. Let the sauce simmer for about 5-7 minutes, allowing the flavors to meld.
  6. Carefully add the Alaska Pollock chunks to the pan. Gently stir to coat the fish in the curry sauce. Let it cook for another 5-8 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  7. If desired, stir in lime juice for added brightness. Garnish with fresh cilantro before serving.
  8. Serve hot with steamed rice or warm naan bread.
