- 400ml can of light coconut milk
- 200ml water

Top tips for a perfect Fish Curry
- Use Fresh Fish: Opt for fresh, firm fish fillets for the best texture and flavour. If using frozen fish, make sure it’s thoroughly thawed and pat it dry before cooking.
- Cut Potatoes Evenly: Make sure the potato chunks are roughly the same size so they cook evenly. This helps them become tender without overcooking the curry.
- Simmer Gently: When cooking the fish, keep the heat at a gentle simmer to ensure it cooks evenly without falling apart.
Directions
- Boil potatoes until softened
- Stir fry 1/2 jar of yellow curry paste with 2 tbsp oil in pan until sauce thickens
- Add half of the 400ml coconut milk and stir fry for 5 minutes or until sauce thickens
- Reduce the heat and add the fish, remaining coconut milk and 100ml of water and simmer for 10 min
- Add snow peas and cook until tender.
- Turn off the heat and add fish sauce and fresh coriander
- Serve with steamed rice and enjoy.
