- Heat the oil in a pan and add shallots. Saute them for approximately 4 to 5 minutes. Once done, remove the shallots from the pan and set them aside.

- Add turmeric powder, coriander powder, and red chili powder to the pot. Saute them well, allowing the flavors to blend and the spices to cook.
- Now, add the ground shallots and tomato puree to the pot. Mix them well with the spices, ensuring they are thoroughly combined. Add some water and mix it well.
- Add soaked tamarind water and allow it to combine properly with the other ingredients, ensuring a well-incorporated mixture.
- Cover the pot with the lid and let the mixture boil for approximately 7 minutes. Then, add the mackerel fish to it, ensuring it is fully submerged in the curry. Cover the pot again and continue cooking until the fish is well cooked. Once the fish is cooked through, turn off the heat.
