This Tanzanian fish curry recipe, known locally as mchuzi wa samaki, is a revelation for those who love mildly spicy yet deeply flavourful curries. We have used hake and salmon for this version, but you could easily substitute these for any other meaty fish – adding a few prawns during the last few minutes of cooking would make even more of a feast.
Due to strong trade deals with India dating back to the 19th century, Tanzania sees a lot of Indian influence in its cooking. This beautifully spiced fish curry contains classic Indian ingredients such as curry powder, garam masala and coconut milk. Add more chilli powder if you prefer a punchier curry!
