Curry Fish Stew

Recipe Description

When I lived in my old neighbourhood, my local takeout used to have an amazing fish curry on the menu. Since I now live too far away to get takeout from there, I have come up with my own alternative. This Curry Fish Stew ticks a lot of boxes. Not only is it super-quick, it’s also super-tasty.

It’s a great midweek recipe as it takes so little time to prepare and cook. 30 minutes from start to table – that’s shorter than the time it used to take my takeout to arrive! For this recipe, I use cod fillets but you could use another similar fish if you prefer. To make the curry, I simply combine onions, chili pepper, pimento peppers, curry powder, cream, garlic, salt and pepper.

It’s really easy to adapt this recipe too – if you prefer more heat, you can add an extra fresh red chili. Sometimes I add some extra vegetables too if I have some handy.

To make Curry Fish Stew, you will need the following ingredients:
