Thai Green Fish Curry

This curry is quick enough for a weeknight but still feels like you have made something special. The fish cooks gently in the coconut sauce, while the courgette and mangetout keep a bit of bite. Serve it as it is in deep bowls and you will not miss the rice at all.

Method
Serves 4 · about 35 minutes from start to finish.
Warm the olive oil in a wide saucepan over a medium heat and fry the Thai green curry paste for 1 minute until fragrant.
Pour in the coconut milk and bring it to a gentle simmer, stirring well so the paste melts into the sauce.
Add the courgettes and cook for 5 minutes until they are just starting to soften.
Stir in the mangetout and fish, then simmer very gently for 5-6 minutes until the fish flakes easily.
Season with lime juice, a little salt if needed and plenty of black pepper.
Scatter over the coriander and serve in bowls straight away.

Cook's tip
Check your curry paste label before using it - some are hotter or saltier than others, so adjust the final seasoning to match.
