Red Curry Crappie

[GregG]

2 T Red Curry Paste
2 T Butter
2 C Whole Milk
1 t chopped garlic
1 t paprika
20 or so Crappie Fillet

On a greased rimmed cookie sheet place fillets in a single level. Use the paprika, salt and pepper to taste and place in a 400 degree oven for no more than 10 minutes.

While the fish is in the oven, melt the butter in a skillet over med high heat. Add the garlic and curry paste to the butter and mix well. Add the milk and bring to a soft boil and combine well and remove from heat.

Remove fillets from oven and pour the red curry mixture over the fish and return to oven for an additional 5-10 minutes of baking time to thicken the sauce.

Serve over a bed of rice.

This is the curry paste I used. It was near the soy sauce and Raman noodles at Kroger.

Sounds interesting. I take it this is a spicy dish?
Did you come up with this one?

[GregG]

That curry paste has alot of the "spicy" taste without much of the burn so, I would place it in the "mild" category.

I sort of came up with it on my own. I like the green and red curry chicken that a place near work serves and know that they use coconut milk to thin the curry paste with.

I had the curry paste in the fridge from something or another a while back but, didn't have any coconut milk. (who does?) Anyway, I figured I'd try it with what I had, whole milk and butter to make the milk a little richer like heavy cream.

So yeah, I sort of came up with this exact mixture with influence from eating out.

The volumes in the recipe above are all approxiguestimations of what I did. I just sort of threw it all together. But, those amounts will get you real close to the way it needs to be.
