 First take a wide vessel. Place the fish pieces in them. Fill the vessel with water until the fish is well immersed in it. Add some turmeric and salt and heat the vessel on high flame until the water is completely evaporated. After it cools down remove the skin and bones from the fish completely and mash the flesh well. Add the scraped coconut. If required, more salt and turmeric can be added. Mix well

Heat oil in another kadai .When the oil is hot enough, add mustard and urad dal. Stir well until the mustard crackles and the dal turns brown. Now add onion, green chilli and curryleaves. Sauté well until the onion turns light pink. Add the fish and stir well on low flame for at least 5 minutes until the fish turns slightly brown and the raw smell is no longer there. Serve hot with fish curry.
