The spice paste is the secret ingredient to this delicious fish curry recipe..........and we ALL loved it. I made it for mum, dad and Hannah's last meal before they go back to the UK tomorrow - we are all fish and seafood lovers here. I used panga fillets, which held their shape really well and tiger prawns for a bit of a treat. We ate this with plain boiled Thai rice for an elegant and light end of summer meal........merci beaucoup encore!! Made for Please make my Recipe - #8. FT:-)
