Method
- Put all the paste ingredients in a food processor with a pinch of salt and whizz until smooth – add a dash of oil if it’s a little dry.
- Heat the oil in a wide frying pan over a medium-low heat. Add the paste and cook, stirring occasionally, for 5 minutes, until fragrant – be careful not to burn it.
- Gently stir the coconut milk into the curry paste, then add the stock and bring to the boil. Add the potatoes, then reduce the heat slightly and simmer for about 10 minutes, until just cooked.
- Add the beans and cook for 3 minutes, then add the fish and cook for a further 3 minutes, until just cooked through. Remove from the heat and season to taste. You may want to add a dash of lime juice at this stage. Garnish with coriander and lime wedges and serve with jasmine rice.
