Fish with Curry Sauce and Peas

Another trial recipe! Whatever is available in the freezer, I found fish and frozen peas. In the ref, I found left-over noodles. Here we go:

1 fish fillet , cubed (about 100g) ; 1 cup frozen peas; 2 green onion leeks, sliced; 1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil; 2 tablespoon milk; salt and pepper to taste; fishsauce (optional) a little cornstarch; 1/2 cup water (or stock); 1/2 teaspoon sugar; 1 teaspoon curry powder; chili sauce (optional)

Marinate the fish with salt, pepper, and cornstarch for at least 10 minutes, set aside. In a pan, heat oil and half-cooked (about 50%), set aside. In the same pan,  saute peas, red chili, and green onions for few minutes. Add water (stock), sugar, curry powder, and fish. Let it boil. Serve.

Serve with steamed rice or any cooked noodles.

Thai Style Chicken Curry

In Taiwan, we have one favorite Thai Restaurant (Thai Town Cuisine) and every time we're there chicken curry is a must! Actually, there are different ways how to make Thai Chicken Curry. Today, I made the simplest ingredients as possible since I don't have Thai curry paste. I prepared the following:
1 skinless chicken breast (cubed)
green beans (cubes) - around 150 g
1 cup coconut milk
Thai curry paste
few fresh basil leaf

If there is no curry paste, here's alternative:
1tablespoon fresh ginger (minced)
1 teaspoon curry powder
1 teaspoon chili power
1 teaspoon sugar ( I used brown)
1/4 teaspoon cayenne powder
1 tablespoon olive oil

Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil, saute the chicken until turn all white, add salt.

Reduce heat, add paste curry (or the mix seasoning above) and coconut milk.

Add little water if it's too thick and  it cook for few minutes. Add the green beans

until cook.

Serve it with rice
