This is a lovely recipe. I wanted somethng spicy to appeal to my fish-averse male members of the family, but without coconut which I cannot stand, and this did the trick (especially with added red chillis!). Gorgeous!

This was DELICIOUS. I did it almost exactly to the recipe (mostly because I didn't know what I was doing) and I don't think I'd change a thing. I could've gone for a bit more heat (spicy), but the flavors were amazing.
