Spicy Bombay Duck Curry
A fiery coastal curry built around bombil, the soft-fleshed lizardfish that Mumbaikars call Bombay duck. The fish is marinated in turmeric and chili, fried until crisp-edged, then simmered in a tart, coconut-laced tomato gravy spiked with Kashmiri chili and aromatic garam masala. It's messy, aromatic, and best mopped up with rice or roti.
