Tamarind is fruit and has a sweet and sour taste helping to balance the flavour of this seafood curry.

Ingredients

Brown onion

1 medium, coarsely chopped

Fresh ginger

1 tbs, 2cm pieces, coarsely chopped

Fresh green chilli

1 whole, deseeded, coarsely chopped

Olive oil

1 tbs

Mustard seeds

  1. Process onion, ginger and chilli in a food processor until it forms a paste. Heat oil in a large deep frying pan over medium heat. Cook mustard and fennel seeds and curry leaves for 1 minute or until popping.
  2. Stir in onion paste and cook, stirring, for 2-3 minutes or until golden. Stir in turmeric. Add coconut milk, tamarind and ⅓ cup (80ml) water. Add beans and seafood and cook for 3 minutes or until seafood is opaque.

Notes

SERVING SUGGESTION: Salad of shredded carrot, sliced red onion, chopped mint, a little lemon juice, lemon wedges and steamed brown rice.
