[Kurt]

Small but surely tasty! Try this Small Fish Curry Recipe, here's how!

Ingredients:​

• 1 lb (450g) mixed seafood (shrimp, scallops, fish chunks, squid)
• 2 tbsp vegetable oil
• 1 large onion, finely chopped
• 4 cloves garlic, minced
• 1-inch piece of ginger, grated
• 1-2 green chilies, finely chopped (adjust to taste)
• 2 tbsp curry powder
• 1 tsp ground turmeric
• 1 tsp ground cumin
• 1 tsp ground coriander
• 1 can (14 oz) diced tomatoes
• 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
• 1 cup fish or vegetable broth
• 1 tbsp fish sauce (optional)
• 1 tbsp lime juice
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Fresh cilantro, chopped (for garnish)
• Cooked rice or naan, for serving

Instructions:​

1. Prepare the Seafood:
   • Clean and cut the seafood into bite-sized pieces. Pat dry and set aside.
2. Sauté Aromatics:
   • Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium heat.
   • Add the chopped onion and sauté until translucent, about 5 minutes.
   • Add the minced garlic, grated ginger, and chopped green chilies. Cook for another 2-3 minutes, stirring frequently.
3. Add Spices:
   • Stir in the curry powder, ground turmeric, ground cumin, and ground coriander. Cook for 1-2 minutes until fragrant, stirring constantly to prevent burning.
4. Add Liquids:
   • Pour in the diced tomatoes (with their juice), coconut milk, and fish or vegetable broth.
   • Stir to combine and bring to a simmer.
5. Simmer the Curry:
   • Let the curry simmer gently for about 10 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
6. Cook the Seafood:
   • Add the mixed seafood to the pot. Stir gently to coat the seafood in the curry sauce.
   • Simmer for 5-7 minutes, or until the seafood is cooked through and tender. Be careful not to overcook, as seafood can become rubbery.
7. Finish the Curry:
   • Stir in the fish sauce (if using) and lime juice.
   • Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
8. Serve:
   • Ladle the seafood curry into bowls.
   • Garnish with freshly chopped cilantro.
   • Serve hot with cooked rice or naan on the side.

Enjoy your flavorful and comforting seafood curry!
