Fish head curry has an interesting and unique history in Singapore… it’s said that there was an Indian chef who had a group of Chinese customers that he needed to cook for. He knew the fish head was a delicacy in Chinese culture, and so he decided to cook a fish head, but use Indian style curry. His idea went perfectly, so perfectly that today it’s one of the main iconic dishes in Singapore, and it’s the single handed dish that I would go straight from the airport in Singapore just to eat - which is exactly what we did. The Banana Leaf Apolo is a longstanding south Indian restaurant in Singapore, and although they now have a couple of branches, the old main branch is in Little India along Race Course Road. They have a full menu of different Indian dishes and they also have a cabinet full of pre-cooked dishes to order as well, but it wouldn’t be right to go there and not eat fish head curry. There were a couple of different fish head sizes, but I couldn’t resist ordering the biggest size. The fish head curry was excellent, and it wasn’t too oily or rich. Instead, it was almost like an incredibly spice filled broth, it was both thin and flavorful, and it went extremely well with the soft red snapper head of the fish. I’m a huge fan of fish head curry in Singapore, and The Banana Leaf Apolo does a very good version of it.
