This is from the Taj at Madras and if you like fish and coconut, it is absolutely delicious.
The same recipe can be done with chicken and lamb as well.
The original recipe called for one fresh grated coconut or 2-1/2 cups of desiccated coconut. The milk of the coconut is extracted in two stages and is added in place of the cans of milk in the recipe above. The coconut is added in the ghee with the onions and the spice paste in the initial frying stage to make a richer gravy.
