Marinate fish fillets with yogurt, lemon juice, ginger, garlic, and spices for at least 30 minutes.

Heat ghee in a large pot over medium heat until melted.

Add sliced onions and sauté until golden brown, about 5-7 minutes.

Stir in chopped tomatoes and cook until soft, about 3-4 minutes.

Add marinated fish and cook until just opaque, about 5 minutes.

Remove fish and set aside, keeping the sauce in the pot.

Layer soaked basmati rice over the sauce in the pot.

Pour in water and bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and cover.

Cook until rice is tender and water is absorbed, about 15-20 minutes.

Gently fold in the cooked fish and sprinkle with chopped mint and coriander leaves.

Cover and let it rest for 10 minutes before serving.
