Instructions
Wash produce before use
1
Prep the curry ingredients
- Finely chop, press, or grate enough garlic to measure 1 teaspoon [2 tsp].
- Grate or peel and finely chop enough ginger to measure 1 teaspoon [2 tsp].
- Peel and thinly slice enough onion to measure ¾ cup [1½ cups].
- Juice half the lime; cut half into wedges for garnish. [Juice 1 lime; cut the remaining lime into wedges.]
- If using the serrano, remove the stem, ribs, and seeds; thinly slice the serrano. Wash your hands after handling.
2
Start the coconut curry
In a medium [large] sauce pot over medium heat, warm 1 tablespoon [2 TBL] oil until hot but not smoking. Stir in the garlic, ginger, and as much serrano as you like and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Add the onion and tomatoes and season with salt and pepper. Increase the heat to medium-high and cook, stirring occasionally, until the onion is tender and the tomatoes start to burst, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in the curry spice blend and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
3
Finish the coconut curry
To the pot with the tomato mixture, add the coconut milk and 2 tablespoons [¼ cup] water and bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the sauce thickens slightly, about 30 seconds. If you prefer a thinner sauce, add more water, 1 tablespoon at a time, to reach the desired consistency. Remove from the heat, add 1 teaspoon [2 tsp] lime juice, and season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover to keep warm. While the coconut curry is cooking, prepare the fish.

Prep and cook the fish
- Strip the basil leaves from the stems; coarsely tear the leaves for garnish.
- Pat the fish dry with a paper towel; season lightly with salt and pepper.
In a large frying pan over medium-high heat, warm 1 to 2 tablespoons oil until hot but not smoking.
For sole: Add the fish and cook until lightly browned on the bottom side, 1 to 2 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 1 to 2 minutes.
For halibut: Add the fish and cook until lightly browned on the bottom side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes.
For snapper: Add the fish, skin side down, and cook until the skin is crisp, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes.
For salmon: Add the fish and cook until lightly browned on the bottom side, 4 to 5 minutes. Turn and cook until the flesh is opaque and flaky, 2 to 4 minutes.
