Fish Stew



You can vary this according to what you have on hand (for example, use coriander but not lime or curry paste) or which type of fish you like. You can also add prawns. I made this spicy for me by adding dried chilli and Tabasco, but I left it milder for my sweetheart.

Ingredients:
around 6 waxy potatoes
1-2 carrots
a couple of small pieces of lemongrass
water
one head of spring greens or a similar amount of spinach
oil
around 200 g fish (I used coley)
lime leaves
curry paste
coriander
black pepper
1 tin coconut milk

Instructions:
1. Wash and slice the potatoes. Wash, peel, and slice the carrots.
2. Put them and the lemongrass in the water and boil for about 10 minutes, until the potato has softened. Drain.
3. Lightly steam the greens and the oil.
4. Remove the skin and bones from the fish and chop it into pieces.
5. Put the greens, potatoes, carrots, and fish in a pot and season/spice according to taste. Add the coconut milk and cook, covered, for about 15 minutes.
