Method of preparation
1. Gut and clean the fish, then cut into medium sized pieces. Bring a pot of water to boil, then boil the fish for about 5 - 10 minutes until fully cooked.
2. Remove the fish from the water, drain fully, and leave to cool.
3. Once the fish is cool, carefully take off the skin and debone all the meat from the fish, and flake the fish in your fingers so it's almost like deboned minced fish. Discard the bones and skin.
4. Set aside the fish for later.
5. In a large pot or sauce pan, add all the coconut milk and curry paste, then turn on medium heat.
6. Stir gently, and only in one direction, making sure all the curry paste dissolves into the coconut milk.
7. Add the minced fish, season with salt, and tear the kaffir lime leaves in half and add them to the curry.
8. Keep stirring in one direction, and once it comes to a boil, turn down the heat. You don't want the curry to boil strongly. Keep stirring gently for about 5 minutes once it comes to a boil.
9. Taste test for flavor, you may need to add more salt. You're done.
