GREEN THAI FISH CURRY

Steps:

• Put the curry paste in a pan with the solid top of the coconut milk and heat gently until it starts to sizzle. Add the rest of the coconut milk, bring to a simmer, add the sugar snaps and cook for 1 minute.
• Add the fish and cook gently for 3 minutes or until the fish is cooked through, then season with a few splashes of fish sauce. Sprinkle on the chilli and coriander, and serve with rice.

GREEN COCONUT FISH CURRY

Steps:

• Heat the oil in a nonstick pan, add the mustard seeds, cardamom pods, cloves, and cinnamon stick and stir-fry for 20 seconds (be careful, the mustard seeds might pop). Add half of the chopped onion and stir-fry for 4 to 5 minutes, or until the onions are soft. Meanwhile, place the remaining onion, the ginger, garlic, ground coriander, and 2 ounces (1/4 cup) of coconut milk into a blender or food processor, and blend to a smooth puree.
• Add the coconut milk mixture to the pan along with the whole green chiles, and salt, to taste. Cover the pan with a lid, and cook over a low heat for 12 to 15 minutes, giving the pot an occasional stir.
• Add the remaining coconut milk, the water, the curry leaves, black pepper, garam masala, and the fish, and leave to cook undisturbed for about 3 to 5 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and cooked through.
• To serve this dish, stir in the lemon juice and fresh cilantro. Taste and adjust the seasonings, if necessary, and then pour into bowls and serve with rice.

THAI GREEN CURRY

Steps:

• To make the curry paste, gradually combine all the ingredients, except the shrimp paste, using a pestle and mortar. Add the ingredients one at a time and pound vigorously after each to form a rough paste. Add the shrimp paste and continue to pound together until you have a smooth paste. The paste is ready when you can no longer identify any of the ingredients. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for 3-5 days or in the freezer for up to three months.
• To make the curry, heat the oil in a saucepan over a low heat. Add the green curry paste and stir until fragrant - you won't need all the paste. Increase the heat to medium and add in the chicken pieces, coating with the paste. When the chicken has browned, spoon in half the coconut milk, avoiding adding any of the water at the bottom of the tin - this will split the curry. Stir continuously for 10 mins or until the chicken is fully cooked and the sauce is simmering.
• Pour in the remaining coconut milk, discarding the water, and turn the heat up to bring to the boil, then return the heat to medium. Add the Thai and pea aubergines with the baby corn and sugar snap peas and simmer, stirring occasionally, for about 10 mins or until the flavours combine, the sauce thickens slightly and vegetables are tender.
• Gradually add the fish sauce and palm sugar, stirring and tasting after each addition until you are happy. Add the lime leaves and most of the Thai basil, then cook for a further 5 mins to let their flavours infuse. To serve, pour the curry into individual serving dishes and scatter over the sliced chilli and the remaining Thai basil leaves.
