  This was very quick to make, tasty and an unusual way to serve smoked mackerel.

  Not entirely sure what's 'Indonesian' about it...but all the same it's a really tasty,simple & quick midweek supper with punchy flavours. Great use for leftover rice.

  This recipe was REALLY quick, easy, tasty and cheap to do too. All qualities I love! My only comment would be that it was quite salty. Also I did add more thai paste than suggested. I will be making it again though.

  This is awesome. I've left out the cucumber and used leeks instead of spring onions (because that's what I had). It is great. Love it!

  This certainly is quick and cheap, and, an exciting method of getting the all important omega 3 into one's diet! I used 'Bart' Red Thai Curry paste, and my only comment is that the dish wasn't as spicy as I was expecting, in fact.. it wasn't spicy or hot at all. Whether this is the paste I used, or the quantity (1 tbsp), I can't say, but worth bearing in mind. Nonetheless, was a cracking meal requiring little effort... perfect for a monday evening!

  Agree with person who said did not know what was Indonesian about it. Also smoked mackerel is already salty so need to watch how much salt is added to finished dish. Good way of using up left over rice. Left out cucumber and replaced with shredded white cabbage and used curry paste with cumin and coriander which I had leftover in the fridge. Worked very well. My 8 year old austisic son who enjoys freshly cooked home meals lapped it up!

  brilliant idea! I swapped frozen peas for broccoli, as that is what I had, and it was fabulous. Must must remember to do this one again!

  Delicious, filling, healthy and cheap! What more could you want? Like others used a bit more curry paste and it wasn't too spicy for me.

  I made this as I had some smoked mackerel in the fridge and wanted to make something HOT with it (as opposed to salad) as it is so freezing at the moment! Was really pleased with the dish, was dead easy and used things that I already at home. Felt healthy, was cheap and a bit different.
