{"product_id":"babas-malaysian-fish-curry-powder-250g","title":"Baba's Malaysian Fish Curry Powder, 250g","description":"\u003cp\u003eBaba's Fish Curry Powder is a Malaysian kitchen essential, made by Baba's Products - a family business based in Penang since 1952 and still the name most Malaysians reach for when they want a fish curry that tastes genuinely right. The blend is built around coriander, cumin, fennel and turmeric, with dried chilli for warmth and a careful balance of spices that gives the finished dish its characteristic golden-orange colour and fragrant, rounded heat. This is a powder with real depth - warm rather than aggressive, aromatic rather than one-dimensional.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eSlacken it with a little water into a paste, fry it briefly in oil to wake the spices up, then add your fish and a splash of tamarind water for that characteristic sour-savoury edge and coconut milk. Mackerel, salmon steaks, sea bass and prawns all work beautifully; firm white fish holds together especially well. Beyond a classic fish curry, it does excellent things to a quick coconut broth with rice noodles, or used as a spice rub on fish fillets before grilling.\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eWhy we love it:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBaba's has been making curry powders in Penang since 1952 - this is a recipe with genuine provenance and decades of home-cook trust behind it\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA spice blend designed specifically for fish, which means the balance is right from the start - you're not adapting a generic curry powder\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eWarm, fragrant heat rather than face-melting fire; approachable enough for a weeknight, interesting enough to impress\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProduces that distinctive golden-orange colour and the sour-savoury depth that defines a proper Malaysian fish curry\u003cbr\u003e\n\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eGluten-free [please verify on pack] and suitable for pescatarians\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003ch2\u003eHow to use:\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFor a fish curry for four, mix 3 tablespoons of Baba's Fish Curry Powder with enough water to form a thick paste.
