Cooking Steps
In a medium saucepan, bring the water to the boil. Add the jasmine rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 12 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat and keep covered for another 10-15 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the water is absorbed. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!
While the rice is cooking, finely grate the ginger. Finely grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Thinly slice the brown onion. Very thinly slice the makrut lime leaves. TIP: The leaves are fibrous so make sure to cut them very thin. Roughly chop the Asian greens. Slice the lime into wedges. Cut the white fish fillets into 2cm pieces.
Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a large frying pan over a medium-high heat. Add the brown onion and cook, stirring, for 3-4 minutes or until softened. Add a drizzle more olive oil, the ginger, garlic and yellow curry paste (see ingredients list) and cook for 1-2 minutes or until fragrant. SPICY! You may find the curry paste hot! Feel free to add less, depending on your taste.
Add the coconut milk (see ingredients list), soy sauce, makrut lime leaves and Asian greens to the frying pan and bring to a simmer.
Add the white fish to the pan and stir to combine. Cover with a lid or foil and cook for 4-5 minutes or until the fish has just cooked through. TIP: The fish is cooked through when it turns from translucent to white.
Divide the rice between bowls and top with the Thai yellow fish curry. Garnish with the crispy shallots and serve with the lime wedges.
