🥗Healthier: canned tomatoes

💰Cheaper: tomato paste

Canned tomatoes maintain flavor, and paste is cost-effective.

Chop the red pepper, tomatoes, garlic, and ginger, and add them to the blender with water to blend until smooth.

Pour the blended mixture into a saucepan and cook until there is no water left, avoiding mixing to prevent splatters.

In a bowl, add water, salt, and lemon, then add the fish to season.

Heat vegetable oil in a hot pan, then add chopped onions and cook until golden brown.

Add ginger and garlic paste to the onions and sauté on medium heat.

Add chopped carrots and green pepper, then mix in tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes.

Add the blended mixture into the pan and let it cook for a few minutes, then add spices: 2 teaspoons cumin, 2 teaspoons paprika, dry rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper, along with sugar to balance the taste.

Add the fish to the mixture and pour in water according to desired consistency, then cover and cook for 10-15 minutes.

Mix in a tablespoon of vertical (likely a typo for 'vegetable') and a bit of water, then add coriander, mixing gently to avoid breaking the fish.
