  2. 2

    For tamarind water: Take lemon size of tamarind. Add ½ cup of hot water over the tamarind. Soak the tamarind for about 10 minutes. This process helps to soften the tamarind. Next step use fingers to mash the tamarind into the water until it is completely soft. This helps to extract the juice from the tamarind. Next, strain the tamarind water into another bowl. Add another 1/2 cup of water and mash the pulp once again to make more tamarind water. The tamarind water is now ready for use in gravy.

    To remove the fishy smells from the stingray, soak the fish pieces for 30 minutes with 1 tbsp salt and a handful tamarind. Then wash well.
