Meen Moilee: Fish In Fragrant Coconut Milk

Features:
    Cuisine:

    An very delicious fish curry. used bay leaves instead of the curry leaves as I forgot to buy some and served over saffron rice. A cucumber salad made a nice cool contrast to the spiciness of this dish. My quibble with it is that the quantities/proportions of fish and sauce seem off. used one 12 ounce fish fillet but made half the sauce. This was two average servings. The amount of sauce is not going to be enough for the 4 lbs of fish the recipe calls for. And 1 lb of fish is really an enormous amount, as fish fillets have no waste. I suppose it might work as a glaze, but I do not think that is what is intended. Believe me, you will want more sauce, not less.

Do not Add the Thick Coconut Milk Yet, as It Will Curdle. Add the Fish and a Pinch of Salt. Bring to the Boil, Reduce Heat, and Simmer For 6 to 7 Minutes Until Cooked.
