Recipe's preparation

  1. Place fish fillets into Varoma receptacle and set aside.

    Place lime zest in mixing bowl and zest 20 sec / sp 10. The zest may still be a little chunky, but will break down when cooking.

    Put all remaining curry ingredients, except coconut milk, into mixing bowl and blend 20 sec / sp 9 to form a paste. Scrape down sides and lid and add coconut milk and blend 5 sec / sp 5.

    Place Varoma on bowl and cook for 12 mins / Varoma / sp3.

     

    While curry is cooking, prepare Salsa by tossing mango, coriander, shallots, lime juice and zest in a bowl.

     

    When curry is finished cooking, place fillets into Thermoserver and pour curry sauce over, leaving a little sauce behind ( just below the blades ). You can leave fillets whole or break up into smaller pieces.

    Weigh in washed rice into simmering basket , add 900g water and cook 16mins / Varoma / sp3. The remaining sauce will add flavour and colour to rice.

     

    Serve fish curry on a bed of rice with sauce and salsa on top. Serve extra sauce and shallots on the side

Tip

If you have really large fish fillets, you can place a couple of egg rings in base of  Varoma and rest fillets on top, this will allow steam to circulate better.

You can also dry roast whole spices and mill for a fuller flavour.

Adding the fish sauce at the end of cooking time results in a sauce with a little more texture.

The fish continues to cook a litlle while absorbing curry flavour in the Thermoserver.

Substitute prawns or do a mix of both fish and prawns.

    This was scrumptious and very easy to make! Five year old loved it too.

    Awesome....substituted one red chilli in favour of 3 green chillies.
    Cut the fish sauce to 40g instead of 60g.
    I have made a number of fish curries...This is by far the BEST.
    I also learned that you can zest in the thermomix.
    Hello- Where have I been.
    Thank you.

    Amazing- loved it. I added some aubergine to the curry for a bit of extra veg and it worked perfectly. Will definitely make again. Thank you!

    We loved this sauce. We had a big piece of Rockling so cut it into pieces after the 12 minutes and cooked a further 3 minutes. I only added 40 g fish sauce and thought this was sufficient and used red chilies as we like a bit of oommp. Cooked some veggies in the Varoma while cooking the rice. Absolutely a winner ! When mangoes are out of season I might try pineapple. Thanks Smile

    NZJen42: Thanks for your review and so pleased you enjoyed it! Prawns definately work well with this curry! The fish sauce is actually 60g but as with any flavourings you can adjust to your taste.
    I have this on my meal plan for next week and will go with your recommendation of two Tbsps and see if ok for me. xx

    Yum yum yum - this recipe is so good. Highly recommended. Will try adding some prawns next time. Not sure about 80g of fish sauce- 2 tablespoons would be enough.
