Her onions are cooked down pretty damn good! Give the English lady some credit for bringing national cuisine to life in her own rendition. I cook her recipes quite often, with my own flare of course and they always come out fabulous!
I love how unconventional and carefree Nigella is in her cooking. Whatever she makes, she makes from her heart and not from an instruction book:) Love from India
I miss you Nigella. You are always been my favorite. I've been following you since my childhood. For ever summer with Nigella Lawson was my favorite show 😍
She's an amazing woman. Reminds me of indomitable women I've been privileged to know, and aspired to be like, from all walks of life and many parts of the world. So much pain in those eyes. So much hard-earned knowledge. So much determination to keep going and find goodness. To love, adore, and protect her children above all else. And to make the best of a life that looks so very different to us on the outside, than what it really has been and is.
I just found Nigella's video and loved her care free presentation, I can't wait to make this curry fish dish ....with all the comments I think you should follow her recipe and people can tweak it to their preferred taste later..simple. ...I look forward to more recipes from this lovely lady!
stfu 😂🤣😆nitika they can criticize their food, they have the right to do so when hipsters take it and make it their own. She's probably horrible at it anyways.
Thats not a "Kerala cuisine" as a South Indian I know that.. No South Indian state cook fish curry like that.. all she done is added some English flavors to a mix of onion and tamarind.. and who puts that load of turmeric in a curry? Turmeric will give a bitter off putting taste if used this much.. The closest dish that I can compare to her version is the "Meen Moilee" from Kerala.
Thank you all, cooks familiar with this style Indian food - you have saved me from over-doing the tumeric... once in a lifetime, found a mistake with my dear Nigella! She makes cooking such a pleasure!!!
Hey Nigella....i love ur cooking Bt one thing don't use that much turmeric powder,,,, coz in India we use turmeric power for good colour and slight flavor,,,, If you will use that much of turmeric then it's only gonna taste turmeric but nothing else!!!
Emma Flint not Indian food! I love nigella but The above comment is right. Being an indian I think we know our spices more. A tsp of turmeric is good enough. Also I’m from Kerala , so it’s not “keralan”. A simple Kerala fish curry is great enough. A good version from her though and it’s her show so she adds what she sees fit. Fair enough!
Shaz B she never said she is a chef! She is a food critic who loves to cook good enough to have a show so if you wanna see real chef cooking then go watch Gorodon
Fish curry and rice is an excellent meal combination and eaten in all the coastal states of India not just Kerela but the Keralite recipe stands out bcoz of its unique coconut and tamarind fusion .
Yes..i did use the same amount of tumeric, and i used thick concentrated coconut milk ..that will compensate the strong taste of tumeric, in asian countries, stock can be easily found at the local supermarket 😊
Simply beautiful. I thought it was a soup until they ate it with rice. I love the sun in the background, the beach house, here slightly blue aqua blue dress and little sweater : ) that matches the kitchen. Beside the food, the show is very artistic, though too much blurring in and out. Everything her is bucolic and beautiful.
Too much turmeric turns the gravy bitter. For color and flavor, we only add a teaspoon or less. The fish curry looks great but I wonder how it will taste with so much turmeric. Edit- Thank you for the likes everyone 🙂
@Daniel Hollingsworth She said a teaspoon but she didn't add a teaspoon. It was a lot more than that. Secondly, before adding turmeric to the gravy she had marinated the fish in a lot of turmeric.
Oh wow, this is good to know that you only use a small amount of turmeric. I've tried other recipes that use 1 tbsp. I didn't like the taste it was too strong.
ingrid I was thinking the same thing, to make it more of a balanced meal. When I make this, I may throw in some bamboo shoots, even though that may not be “correct”. Also, you could maybe throw in some spinach when you add the fish. Or Water chestnuts, maybe? Carrots might also go nicely. If you think of anything else, let me know :) I can’t wait to try this!
Right? I'm more confused that the grown-up's are eating supper after the kids have gone to bed. If they are eating around 8, that's a bit early for the kids to be in bed. But if the kids are sleeping around 9, are they eating that late? Couldn't all of them just eat together? Must she be having curry with red chilis that would burn off the kids' tongues? What's the story?
About how much turmeric....half or less of what she suggests ? I also feel like it needs a starchy accompaniment. What would you serve with it ? For a little garnish, finely minced parsley or cilantro?
@@karenkaren3189 cilantro definitely, and she did serve it with fresh, fluffy rice. Rice is the best thing with curries like this. The turmeric really depends on you. I say to try the recipe first, and then decide how much you want to reduce. If youre not a turmeric fan (like me) Then maybe reduce a teaspoon of it from the recipe. Make sure to put something like chilli powder instead to compensate for any loss of flavour. As for the onions, I would brown them because that brings more flavour, but to each their own.
Always obsessed with Nigella’s cooking show! Wow, These are even better with easy creative and unpretentious devouring food ! Brings families and friends together!! Unlike all are obsessed with skipping fat etc) Lovely curvy figure!! ( how a woman should be ) I think my whole family and all Colombo gourmet home chefs! Wished I was in Colombo Sri Lanka when she visited!! Las Vegas grocers, pls we need these red chilies! ( with our Latino and Asian communities surprisingly not seeing!
To all the nay Sayers . I think that she is terrific and I wish she would cook for me. I can burn boiled eggs ( it's not that difficult actually). Love the videos sweetie you keep at it . Thanks
Y'all need to calm down. Nigella is British so she can use lesser or more turmeric than what you would normally do according to her taste. I live in Asia, yes we also use less turmeric when cooking but it's up to her to use more etc as long as it taste delicious
Good choice of fish however too much tamarind and turmeric. Again the fish should be cooked in coconut sauce ( coconut, onion, tamarind to taste , paprika/ red chilli powder and a bit of coriander powder all ground to a paste) optional- cumin, fenugreek, red hot chilli powder Then heat a table spoon of oil to splutter some mustard seeds, fenugreek and finely chopped shallots with dried red chillies. Add this to the cooked fish let it simmer. ( amount of oil used can vary) . Do not forget the curry leaves at different times of cooking .. There you go- Kerala fish curry ... love all your ideas of cooking especially party food Nigella
6:14 I love it how they showed the man who's obviously overwhelmed by the heat of the chili, and plays it cool with a cough.

That view in the end is so beautiful, and with food cooked by Nigella, it can't get better than this.
In Nigellese “teaspoon” means 1/4 cup
That's so funny. I was thinning the same thing
Hahaha I was amazed at that amount as well! Yikes.
Gordon Ramsay’s butter portions are similar lol
Can't get enough of watching Nigella cooking delicious dishes. Wish i could have a taste. Nigella is the best.
These shows were ahead of the times...love Nigella
I remember watching this episode as a kid. Im 25 now and still remember i drooled watching this on tlc.
I admire here way of life and personality. I adore her! This looks good!
Yea yea, we indians dont put that much turmeric. But its her rendition of it. Wonderful. Love from kerala❤️

Wow that much turmeric could cure the cancer of the whole world. Just saying 😁😁
Thank you ma'am for mentioning about our small state to the world. With lots of love from Kerala
I am from Kerala....and I'm salivating....
Turmeric overload goodness gracious
its so adorable how you treat the ingredients... 😍😍😍😍
I made this. And everyone loved it. But my pot is stained yellow 😂
Use Clorox cleanup...soak for 5 min...like new!
white vinegar soak will fix it too
Ok question…. Where do you find the fish stock? Can’t find it anywhere

The onions ,tomatoes, ginger, chilliesand parsley are caramelised and blended in a mixer grinder .
Clove powder can be added along with bayleaves
Hey Nigella....i love ur cooking
Bt one thing don't use that much turmeric powder,,,, coz in India we use turmeric power for good colour and slight flavor,,,,
If you will use that much of turmeric then it's only gonna taste turmeric but nothing else!!!
I think Nigella has been cooking long enough to know what and how she wants her dishes to have in them.
Emma Flint clearly not. Just because she’s a chef doesn’t mean she’s mastered non European food.

Notice how the kids went to sleep at 12 noon. Nice production Nigella.
I love watching you cook ❤️
Beautiful recipe nigella loved it
Love her, will try this, but probably cut back on the turmeric as per my fellow poster’s suggestion.
Way too much turmeric ! A teaspoon and not a speck more please !
I tried this recipe according to Nigella’s cookbook and it was delicious 👍
So the tumeric was not too much?
Regina Remsberg to me it wasn’t too much. But I don’t know what others would feel 😅
Thank you 😊
Whats the brown paste she added??
@@zinajo9615 Tamarind paste
Made this for dinner..it was superb!!
Really did u use the same amount of tumeric? And was it hard to find concentrated stock? Thank you 😊

Could watch you cook all day every day...........
I can almost taste the freshness. ♥️

It can be light at 8.00 pm in London
The waves are standing still lol 😂
Everyone is talking about the turmeric but my first reaction was "OK, but the waves DO NOT move".
@@impossiblemodel 🤣
I just made this and it was deeelicious. Thank you.
In Indian dishes we add a pinch of turmeric.... Enormous amount of turmeric all into one fish curry really took me by surprise...
I make this regularly love you nigella thanks for sharing
Looks delicious and so healthy! Can I use fresh turmeric instead of ground?
U will end up tasting that bitter fresh turmeric in ur mouth

@@SueG35 i cn feel d taste actually of those excess turmeric 😃😃😃. Nigella said 1tsp but she kep adding n adding.
I heard a lot of moaning and grunting so it must taste really good.

Did you not hear where she said, about a teaspoon of turmeric? So what's your problem?
Came for the curry, stayed for Nigella.
Best chef best food best mother what else’s?best of her friends I love Nigella the way she cook,I feel I watching master chef at the moment.
Hello Nigella ❤

Lol The music that begins near the middle sounds like something out of Spyro.
With all due respect, too much turmeric and the onions were not allowed to cook and melt.
Yet, somehow they did 🙄

From in KSA 💚💚
that is more than a teaspoon of turmeric.
Can people read the comments before commenting..we get it..too much damned turmeric... honestly...
🤣🤣🤣
Touch turmeric with hand, Nigella. It's better than touching chillies with it 😊
Probably that coconut and tamarind will compensate that much turmeric
True
I agree, a bit too much turmeric
@Adam LB could that comment be Adam being a racist!
nigella removes stress from cooking . she's truly fun to watch . but sometimes I'm a bit stressed listening to her brit accent .
I love her

Gosh!! I'm so in love with her cooking videos =))!
To all the nay Sayers . I think that she is terrific and I wish she would cook for me. I can burn boiled eggs ( it's not that difficult actually).
Love the videos sweetie you keep at it . Thanks
A little less turmeric, a little more cooking time , please ! 🤣
Not to mention a little less paranoia about turmeric stains !
Can we use food colour for the desired outcome, I love coconut milk not sure how it turns out to be
Lovely amiga.
Brava ti stimo molto
what again is the brown paste she put in the sauce along with the canned coconut milk?
Tamarind paste
She is a beautiful babydoll 💘💞
Dang!!! The sun was out!!!!
Omg! Thats going to be so much better with fresh coconut milk! 😋😋😋
