How to Make Tropical Sea Breeze Hake and Prawn Curry

1. Prepping the Base

Warm the oil in a wide, lidded frying pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened.

2. Infusing Flavors

Increase the heat slightly and add the ginger, garlic, shrimp paste, chilli, and lemongrass to the pan, cooking for 2 minutes. Stir in the curry powder and sugar until the sugar begins to melt and the mixture clumps.

3. Building the Sauce

Mix in the chopped coriander stems and pour in the coconut milk along with 2 tablespoons of water. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

4. Cooking the Seafood

Nestle the hake pieces into the sauce, distributing the prawns evenly throughout. Squeeze over half the lime, cover with the lid, and simmer for 5 minutes until the hake flakes easily and the prawns are cooked through.

5. Final Touches

Taste and adjust the seasoning, adding more lime if desired. Garnish with coriander leaves and serve alongside cooked rice.
