Indian Fish Curry - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    For the marinade:
    2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
    1 teaspoon ground black pepper
    1/2 teaspoon salt
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    4 white fish fillets
    1 onion, coarsely chopped
    4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
    1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped
    5 cashew halves
    1 tablespoon canola oil
    2 teaspoons cayenne pepper, or to taste
    1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
    1 teaspoon ground cumin
    1 teaspoon ground coriander
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon white sugar
    1/2 cup chopped tomato
    1/4 cup vegetable broth
    1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
Preparation
    Mix the mustard, pepper, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 2 tablespoons of canola oil in a shallow bowl. Add the fish fillets, turning to coat. Marinate the fish in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.
    Combine the onion, garlic, ginger, and cashews in a blender or food processor and pulse until the mixture forms a paste.
    Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
    Heat 1 tablespoon of canola oil in a skillet over medium-low heat. Stir in the prepared paste; cook and stir for a minute or two. Add the cayenne pepper, turmeric, cumin, coriander, 1 teaspoon salt, and sugar. Cook and stir for an additional five minutes. Stir in the chopped tomato and vegetable broth.
    Arrange the fish fillets in a baking dish, discarding any extra marinade. Top the fish with the sauce, cover the baking dish, and bake in the preheated oven until the fish flakes easily with a fork, about 30 minutes. Garnish with chopped cilantro.
