Easy to make curry with lots of veggies. Recipe calls for grouper but I use snapper, a good white fish will do.

  4. 1/2spring onion (or the white portion of 1 large leek)
  5. 1/2 tablespoonminced fresh ginger
  6. 1/2 tablespoonminced fresh turmeric or1 teaspoon dried turmeric

  9. 1/2 (13 ounce)can full-fat coconut milk
  10. 1/2 tablespoonred curry paste, plus more if needed
  11. 1/8 cupcilantro leaves, for garnish

Cooking Instructions

40 minutes
  1. 1

    Heat oven to 225 degrees.

  2. 2

    Season the fish generously with salt and pepper. Heat 2 teaspoons oil in a large skillet over medium-high. When the oil is hot, add the fish and cook until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side. Transfer the fish to a baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm while you prepare the rest of the dish.

  3. 3

    Add the remaining 2 teaspoons oil to the skillet. Add the spring onion trimmed, cut into 2-inch segments and julienned (about 1 cup) and cook, stirring frequently, until lightly browned, 2 to 3 minutes. Add the ginger and turmeric and cook, stirring frequently, 1 minute. Add the carrot, snow peas and green peas and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, 3 to 4 minutes. Transfer the vegetables to a bowl and cover to keep warm.

  4. 4

    Add the coconut milk (I add some Greek yogurt to balance the sweetness of the coconut milk - 2 tablespoons and take 2 tablespoons of the coconut milk) and 1 tablespoon curry paste to the skillet, bring to a simmer over medium, then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer until liquid is reduced by about one-third, about 6 minutes. Whisk in more curry paste according to taste, if desired. Stir in the cooked vegetables and heat until warmed, about 1 minute.

  5. 5

    Divide the fish among shallow bowls. Spoon the sauce and vegetables over the fish, garnish with cilantro and serve.
