I made this one day by accident for lack of a curry paste. I was forced to create my own and it has become a favorite in my household.
Ingredients:
4 tilapia fillets
1 tablespoon oil (olive oil is fine)
1 -2 tablespoon curry powder
1 cup water
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 tablespoon black pepper
1/4 teaspoon chili powder
3 garlic cloves, crushed
1 small onion, sliced
10 ounces coconut milk (use only 1/2)
red pepper flakes (optional)
Directions:
1. Season tilapia fillets with salt, chile powder, and black pepper. Set aside.
2. In iron pot, heat olive oil; add curry powder stirring often. Allow curry powder to practically burn. Add a little water whenever paste becomes too sticky.
3. Add most garlic and onions until well coated.
4. Add coconut milk. Stir. After 1 minute, add fish and remaining garlic and onions.
5. Lower heat and cover for about 15 - 20 minutes.
6. Serve over jasmine or coconut rice.
