Ingredients

Fish Curry

  • 1 shallot, thinly sliced
  • 1/4 -1/2 tsp Thai green curry paste
  • 80ml lite coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup chicken or vegetable stock
  • 1/2 tsp fish sauce
  • 1/2 tsp soy sauce
  • Juice of 1/4 lime
  • 1 pack market fish, sliced 2cm

Vermicelli

Steps

  1. Bring a full kettle of water to the boil.
  2. Prep curry ingredients.
  3. Cook vermicelli. Place vermicelli in a heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave to cook for about 5 minutes. Drain and snip in a few places. Set 3/4 of the noodles aside (this is leftover).
  4. Cook fish curry. Heat 1/2 tsp of oil in a fry-pan on medium-high heat. Add shallot and cook for 2-3 minutes, until soft. Add curry paste and cook for about 30 seconds, until fragrant. Add coconut milk, stock, fish sauce, soy sauce and lime juice and bring to a simmer.
  5. Once simmering, add fish, courgette and peas and cook for 4-6 minutes, until fish is cooked through and greens are tender. Remove from heat, stir through spinach and season to taste.
  6. Prep garnishes.
  7. Serve vermicelli topped with fish curry. Sprinkle over sesame seeds and Thai basil and squeeze over lime.
