  I'm really sorry if I'm being a little daft, but are u meant to fry the fish, chilli, garlic and ginger first or just cook in the stock? Thanks

  SamHam - just cook (poach) it all in the stock, no need to fry first .

  Angela - it's an additional ingredient. Sold in most stores - Tesco stock it in the same aisle as noodles, soy sauce etc. Hope this helps!

  Really tasty. I think I will try adding some spring onions and other veggies next time.

  I chose to make this as a healthy option, but did wonder if it'd be a bit bland and slimy and not fill me up, but I needn't have worried - it was really tasty and filling. It also takes only 15 minutes from getting the ingredients out of the fridge to sitting down to eat. I halved the amount of fish and noodles, but kept the other ingredients roughly as given, which gave a chilli kick that I liked. A really good midweek option that I'll make again.

  A bit disappointing. There's something in there but the flavours aren't balanced (1tsp sugar and 2 dsp fish sauce mixed in helped) but it's too soupy and the sauce needs thickening and given some richness somehow.

  SO simple, SO quick and SO yummy! I didn't find this bland at all I would strongly recommend for a mid week dinner.

  I was really looking forward to trying this but it was bland and disappointing. Also it wasn't a curry at all. Won't be making it again :(

  The nutritional information is clearly wrong. The calories from the fat content alone would be 108, providing the fat content is correct....

  Don't let the name fool you! For those who think this is bland, notice how there are no spices, curry powder or paste among the ingredients - it's not going to be a 'curry'. It's quite light and delicate but very satisfying and you can't beat it for speed. I did put in some sugar snap peas though, which really added to it, and I imagine it would be nice with baby corn or bok choy as well. And maybe twice the ginger. There's room for improvement here, but I think this is quite a nice starting idea when you feel like something light and hassle-free.

  Yes but the fat is unsaturated, making it healthier and liter, meaning there will be less calories than it it was saturated fat. This looks great as a summer meal. Been looking for a different fish meal for a while.
