"This is a mild(ish) curry. So if you want it hotter, just add more the curry paste. If your spices are not fresh, use rounded teaspoons of the spices. For the fish I used 4 Pickerel fillets cut up. Use whole pieces of Cod, Halibut or any other firm white fish."

10 stars. Great curry. I used tilapia fillets. I cut recipe in half but used full tablespoon of curry paste. I used cilantro. Served with rice and buttered carrots.

Love fish and love curry so no surprise that this was a winner at my house. Served with basmati rice made for a delicious evening meal. This is one curry that will see to reruns in my kitchen!

Great fish recipe - I used the cod but used green curry paste (as that is what I had) and light coconut milk - served with grapes - but if I had thought about it earlier this would be wonderful with rice and fruit. (My husband who claims he hates curry had two pieces!) Thanks for sharing this keeper recipe!
