Pair vibrant pumpkin with tangy Thai fish curry for a flavorful twist.
Ingredients:
  • 18.40 gm sunflower oil
  • 84.00 gm Thai red curry paste
  • 200ml light coconut milk
  • 750ml chicken stock
  • 4 Asian (red) eschalots, thinly sliced (see Notes)
  • 1 long red chilli, thinly sliced
  • 2 makrut lime leaves, finely shredded (optional) (see Notes)
  • 250g pumpkin, peeled, cut into 2cm pieces
  • 1 green capsicum, cut into strips
  • 40.00 ml tamarind puree (see Notes)
  • 48.80 gm fish sauce
  • 16.00 gm brown sugar
  • 600g skinless chunky fish fillets (such as blue eye, ling or snapper), cut into 3cm pieces
  • 100g baby spinach leaves
Instructions:
  • In a saucepan over medium-high heat, sizzle the oil and curry paste for 2 minutes until aromatic, stirring constantly.
  • Combine coconut milk, stock, eschalot, chili, and makrut lime leaves in a pot. Stir in pumpkin, capsicum, tamarind, fish sauce, sugar, and a pinch of salt. Cook for 20 minutes until the pumpkin is tender.
