Cut fresh saime from the garden and prepare for cooking.

Add dry spices (garam masala, Lala's curry powder, cumin, turmeric) to a bowl with green seasoning and mix.

Cook the curry paste until it changes to a nice brown color and sticks to the bottom of the pan.

Add chopped onion to the pan and mix.

Add diced potatoes and mix well.

Add the saime to the pot and mix everything together.

Season with salt and let it cook for a few minutes before adding coconut milk.

Add smoked fish to the pot and mix to distribute the flavor.

Pour in 2.5 cups of coconut milk and some water to ensure the saime cooks soft.

Cover the pot and let it cook until the saime and potatoes are soft.

Add eggs to the pot for extra flavor and cook on medium to low heat until ready.
