Easy Fish Curry With Coconut Milk

Method

1. 1

   Heat 3 Tbsp. virgin coconut oil or vegetable oil in a large high-sided skillet over medium. Add 3 Tbsp. red curry paste and cook, stirring constantly, until paste is fragrant and starting to stick to bottom of pan, about 30 seconds. Add juice of 1 lime, one 13.5-oz. can unsweetened coconut milk, 1 Tbsp. plus 1 tsp. sugar, and 1½ tsp. Diamond Crystal or 1 tsp. Morton kosher salt and bring to a simmer. Add 1 medium zucchini, halved lengthwise, cut crosswise into half-moons, and 1 medium red bell pepper, halved, ribs and seeds removed, cut into 2" pieces; simmer until veggies are crisp-tender, 2–3 minutes.

2. 2

   Mix 12 oz. cherry tomatoes, halved, into vegetables in pan, then nestle 1½ lb. skinless white fish fillets (such as cod), cut into 1" pieces, into sauce. Simmer until fish is cooked through and flaky, about 5 minutes. Top with basil leaves and serve with cooked rice on the side and lime wedges for squeezing over.
