For the fish rub: Cut the fish into 2-inch by 1-inch pieces, and transfer them to a medium-sized dish. Combine the ingredients for the rub. Sprinkle the rub on top of the fish pieces. Cover the dish, and stash in the fridge for 30 minutes to 10 hours.

For the mustard sauce: Meanwhile, combine the mustard powder, cayenne, turmeric, and salt in a small bowl. Add one tablespoon of water and mix well. Then add another 7 tablespoons of water and mix again. Set aside.

Pour the oil into a large skillet set over medium-high heat. When shimmering, add the mustard seeds. Cook unil they begin to pop, just a few seconds. Add the cumin and fennel seeds. Stir well, and then add the mustard sauce and the chiles. It should begin boiling immediately. Reduce heat to maintain a bare simmer, and stir well. Add the fish pieces in a single layer.
