  2. In another mixing bowl, mix together red chilli powder, turmeric powder, yogurt, poppy paste, yellow mustard paste, curd, salt and water to make a paste.
  3. Meanwhile in a kadai, heat the mustard oil on a low flame. Once hot, add green chillies and nigella seeds for tempering, keep tossing for about a minute or till done.
  4. Place the hilsa fish on a cast iron frying/grilling pan on a medium-low heat, and pour the sauce mixture on top of fish to coat completely and cover the bottom of the pan. Cover the pan and cook further for about ten minutes.
  5. Check the salt and adjust to suit your taste, check if the fish is tender and cooked well. Once it is cooked well, switch off and serve.
