Add the garlic, ginger, coriander, red pepper flakes, and remaining turmeric, and stir for 1 minute.
Add the tomatoes and cook for 6 minutes, until saucy.
Add the coconut milk and tamarind, then simmer the sauce for 8 minutes.
Set the fish in the pot and cook for 8 minutes without letting it fall apart.
Serve the fish hot with its sauce.
