Seafood with homemade green curry

I used to make curry using store bought curry paste. Boy, was that silly. Making homemade curry is not only easy, it's so much fresher and more delicious than anything you can buy premade.

Ingredient

Food ration :

6 servings

Cooking time :

15 minutes

jalapeno, de-seeded and chopped

lemongrass stalk, finely chopped

thumb-sized nub ginger, finely chopped

small bunch fresh basil leaves, chopped

3 tbsp

fillets firm white fish (I used frozen haddock)

prawns, 31/40 size, shelled and deveined

1/2 cup

Cooking instructions

* Step 1

Pick the leaves off half the cilantro. Set the leaves aside for garnish. Put the stems as well as the remaining cilantro, plus all the ingredients except for the coconut milk and seafood, into a food processor or blender. Blitz until you get a slightly chunky paste.

* Step 2

Add a splash of veg oil to a large pan on medium-high heat. Add 2 to 3 heap tbsp of the curry paste and let cook for 1 minute. Add the coconut milk and bring to a simmer.

* Step 3

Lay the fish into the sauce. I put mine in frozen, so they took about 7 minutes to cook through. If defrosted, they'll take less time. When the fish is almost cooked, add the prawns and scallops. Continue simmering for 2 to 3 minutes until the prawns are pink. Add salt if needed. Chop the cilantro leaves you set aside previously and sprinkle it over the curry. Serve with freshly steamed rice.
