Goan fish curry with sichuan pepper(teppal or thriphal in hindi)

I just love goan cuisine whether its sannas or goan pork curry or its fish curry it has its own flavor  and  very unique by other cuisines.Goan fish curry is similar to our  mangalorean fish curry.This curry can be prepared with any fish.I have used coconut oil to give that extra punch.Normally in goa people have it with red boiled which is a great combo.
