Fresh fish swirlling in a sea of coconut curry. True authentic Swahili dish I must say.I learnt this special dish from my mother the traditional way. A hot charcoal burner, that stone made pestle and mortar, the coconut grater you sit on.....they conjure memories of a lifetime. Delight your senses to the wonders of East African cooking which has origins of Arab, Indian and African elements combined. The fresh herbs and spices tingle and tantalise your taste buds into a frenzy.

Several months ago I posted a recipe for green seafood curry. Today it's red's turn. To be honest, I actually prefer red curry to green. I love the extra kick of heat. The addition of sweet bell pepper gives this version a bit of additional freshness, almost like a fruitiness. As written below, this curry is pretty mild (so that my daughter could eat it). If you'd like more heat, just add extra Thai chilies. Also, feel free to play around with the veg. I used carrots and bok choy because they happened to be in my fridge.

For a long time, I've been wanting to try an Indian curry using fresh fish, which is easily obtainable in Japan. I tried such a curry at a restaurant, and after having experimented twice, it turned out delicious. If you want to increase the variety of vegetables you eat, asparagus and mini tomatoes go well with this dish.・If you've never tried chili pepper or cayenne pepper before, see my diary from June 2009 regarding the adjustment of spiciness.・If you have about 3-4 asparagus, and/or about 6 to 9 mini tomatoes in your refrigerator, cut the former into about 10 cm in length, the latter into half, and add at Step 13.

This Indian fish curry was taught to me by Baba. It's rich in the flavors of various herbs. The only challenge is finding the herbs, sigh.
