Coconut Seafood Curry

Total Time: 55 mins Preparation Time: 25 mins Cook Time: 30 mins

Ingredients

  • Servings: 4
  • 300 -350 g firm fish fillets, cut into pieces (i used halibut, but cod, perch, bass any are fine.)
  • 8 scallops (allows for 2 per person.)
  • 12 squid rings (allows for 3 per person.)
  • 12 -16 prawns, shelled, deveined (3-4 per person i buy medium to largish size prawns.)
  • 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 1 onion, finely chopped
  • 3 garlic cloves, crushed
  • 2 teaspoons gingerroot, grated
  • 3/4 teaspoon turmeric, ground
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons cumin, ground
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons coriander, ground
  • 1 teaspoon mustard seeds
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons sambal oelek (i heap my spoonfuls, but adjust for desired taste.)
  • 400 ml coconut cream (i use kara brand i really like the flavour.)
  • 1 teaspoon sugar
  • 50 ml pineapple juice

Recipe

  • 1 heat oil in a large pan, add onion, garlic and ginger, cook until onion softens.
  • 2 stir in spices, mustard seeds, cinnamon stick and sambal oelek, stir until fragrant.
  • 3 add coconut cream, stir until well combined.
  • 4 note: the kara brand is quite a thick coconut cream, if my sauce thickens up to much i add a little extra light cream or milk. i haven't mentioned, adding cornflour to thicken for this reason, but i also know some brands can be quite watery, so you may want to thicken some more, if this is the case.
  • 5 add sugar and juice, stir until mixed.
  • 6 add all the seafood and cook covered about 5-10 min's or until seafood is cooked through. cooking times will vary according to what seafood you choose to use in this, so i can't give you an exact time.
  • 7 i served mine over sweet potato mash, but it is also good over rice as well.
