  1. You’ll need a 10-inch, non-stick skillet with a lid for this recipe.
  2. Heat oil in skillet over medium heat. Add shallots. Cook and stir until shallots are tender, about 3 minutes. Be careful not to burn them.
  3. Add gingerroot, curry powder and coriander. Cook for 30 more seconds.
  4. Add coconut milk, curry paste, brown sugar and lime juice.  Simmer, uncovered, for 5 minutes. Mixture will thicken slightly.
  5. Stir in cilantro.
  6. Add halibut fillets to sauce in skillet. Spoon sauce over fish. Reduce heat to medium-low. Cover and cook for about 7 minutes, or until fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
  7. Serve fish with hot curry sauce spooned over top.

Makes 4 servings

Tip: Red curry paste is an important ingredient in Thai cooking. It’s a mixture of ground red chili peppers, garlic, lemongrass, coriander, kaffir lime leaves and other aromatic, super-flavorful herbs and spices.
