indian food?

Question

I want to cook something tonight for dinner, but I have NO idea what to make. I know this sounds pathetic, but I just need some new ideas! I have minced meat and catfish. I want to make curry, but I'd like to spice it up a little, something new, ya know? So please help me by maybe providing a recipe? lol I'm sorry this is silly. Doesn't necassarily have to indian, just something simple (non-veg), that wouldn't take too much time or anything. Thank you!

i also mostly have basic condiments like curry powder, cumin seeds, stuff like that. So please, keep it a tad simple! thanks a bunch
