    Very tasty, and quick, but no need for the potatoes, much nicer with rice. very quick to make.I doubled up to make for four, just make sure the fish doesn`t overcook.

    First off, I didn't find that this recipe had the vibrancy of a real Thai curry. When I make a curry in a hurry, I follow the above method, adding the paste and the coconut milk, but then I add Lloyd Grossman red Thai curry sauce to give it a bit more depth. It's still not the same as a restaurant curry but people always seem happy with it! I agree with the review above suggesting removing the potatoes - I prefer it with rice. Bell peppers, green beans, and parsnips are all nice alternatives with both red and green Thai curries. Squash or sweet potatoes would probably work too!

    I used Coley, added 4 heaped teaspoons of my favourite Red Thai paste a whole tin of coconut milk left out the potatoes and used French beans, Red Pepper & Baby Corn served with rice. Very nice.

    Add some kaffir lime leaves, extra dry ground chili and a splash of Thai fish sauce to your Coconut and Red Paste mixture to give an extra and slightly sour taste. I put a tin of drained clams and Octopus (drained of it's oil) into the curry along with white fish - really quick and tasty!
