I loved the curry taste! Very nice recipe which I will do again.

It was okay but didn't wow me. I think the amount of curry made it less polynesian than I anticipated. I'm not sure how I would adapt it for my palate.

Took much longer than the recipe indicated- maybe my fillet's were thicker? But the recipe wasn't very flavorful either. Bland and boring, thought I guess at least my kids ate it and seemed to like it.

OMG! This is absolutely delicious! For me the seasonings were perfect, but they are easily adjusted for anyone who doesn't care for heat. The only thing I can say to those with a lesser experience, is that perhaps your fish was not as good as it could be. I used flash frozen fillets that were sweet smelling to begin with. I find that if fish isn't sweet and firm to begin with, nothing is going to make it better.

This was quite good and very simple to prepare.
