Curried haddock with green mangoes

I love cooking with green mangoes but unfortunately only shrimp and fish goes well with it. The tartness works well with seafood, I guess very much so in the sense that lime works with it as well.

Total cook time and prep time: 45 minutes

Ingredients
· 2 table spoons of Shan curries mix [or 2 tablespoon curry powder]
· 1 teaspoon garam masala [nice to include but can be excluded]
· 1 teaspoon ground cumin
· 1 medium onion, diced
· 3 cloves of garlic, crushed
· 1 small green mango chopped [any way you want]
· 1 large ripe tomato quartered
· Pepper to taste
· Salt to taste
· 2 tablespoon olive oil
· 1 lb halibut cut to one inch squares [halibut can be substituted for any type of firm fish]

Directions
1. Mix the Shan curry [or curry powder] in a medium size bowl. Add garam masala, cumin, onions and garlic, mix together
2. Add 2 tablespoons water to the mixture, stir so that the water absorbs the powders
3. Pour oil into pan, heat over slow fire on stove
4. Add mixture to the oil; keep turning the mixture from the bottom, making sure that it does not stick to the pan. Keep turning until the onions become transparent
5. Add chopped green mango, tomatoes, salt, and pepper to taste as well as 2 cups of water to the pot. Cover and bring to a boil over slow fire. Keep cooking it this way until the tomatoes and mangoes become soft – usually takes about 10 minutes
6. Add the halibut to the sauce; make sure that it is completely covered by the sauce. Cover the pot and let it simmer for about 10 minutes so that the fish soaks up all of the seasonings.

You can cook it for less time if you prefer After 10 minutes turn off the stove and let the curry sit for about 5 minutes, then it is ready to serve. Curry such as this can be eaten with bread, over rice or just by itself
