Red Snapper With Red Curry Carrot Sauce for Two
"This recipe makes a generous 2 servings. Place the cooked fish on a bed of white or brown rice and spoon the wonderful carrot sauce on top. I like to use tilapia but use your choice of mild fish. Adapted from Food and Wine's One Dish Meals."

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY
I was born in a small Canadian prairie town but was raised in the city. Country living appeals to me more and more and now I think I have the best of both worlds, living just outside the city but within a 30 minute drive from downtown.
I enjoy the wildlife I see out my kitchen window and my vegetable and flower gardens in the summer. And I love cooking with the produce from my garden, although there always seems to be too much at once. Learning to can became a necessity with all those beautiful vegetables and I now really enjoy making pickles, relish, salsa, jams and whatever else strikes my fancy.
I have 2 teenage sons and cooking to suit everyone's taste is always a challenge. Recipezaar has certainly made life easier in that regard, with so many great recipes to choose from.
