900 g firm white fish (such as cod or haddock)
2 tins (400 ml) coconut milk

coarse paste.

3. Over a medium heat, add the curry paste and fish to the pan and simmer for about 4 to

5 minutes. Serve the curry with the coriander sprinkled over and Thai fragrant rice.

4. Serve, eat and enjoy!
To prepare in advance, make everything up, keep the paste covered in the fridge, then, 10
minutes before you want to serve, bring the coconut milk back up to the boil, then add all
your other ingredients.
