Ingredients
  • 2 Long green chilies
  • 2 Small red chilies
  • 400 g Firm white fish fillets

  • 2 Coriander roots, finely chopped
  • 4 Kaffir lime leaves

Directions
  1. Heat a wok until hot. Add the whole chilies and roast until just beginning to brown all over.

  5. Bring to the boil, then simmer for 2 minutes.
  6. Add the fish pieces and chillis and simmer gently for 3 minutes, or until the fish is tender.
  7. Stir in the coconut cream.
  8. Stir through the fish sauce, lime juice and salt to taste.
