Steps:
- For the curry sauce, whizz the onion and ginger together to a purée. Heat the oil in a large pan until smoking. Add the garam marsala and sizzle for 30 secs, then add the onion and ginger purée, reduce the heat and slowly cook for 5 mins. Add the remaining spices, fry for 1 min, stir in the chilli and fry for another min, then add the tomatoes and a good pinch of salt and grind of pepper, and stir well. You can do this way in advance, then just throw the curry together on the night - the sauce will freeze or keep in the fridge for up to 3 days.
- To make the curry, melt a third of the ghee in a large pan. Cook the white fish for 2-3 mins until lightly browned, then set aside on a plate. Repeat this process with the salmon and prawns, adding another third of ghee each time. For the mussels, heat a medium-sized saucepan on a high heat. Add the mussels with 2 tbsp of water, cover tightly with a lid, and steam for 3-4 mins, shaking the pan every so often. Drain and set aside with the other seafood.
- Bring the sauce to the boil, stir the fish and mussels in gently, bring to the boil again, then remove from the heat and leave for 3-4 mins - the fish will finish cooking in the heat from the sauce. Add the coriander leaves and serve with Spiced rice and Carrot & cumin salad (see 'Goes well with' on the right of this page).

Steps:
- Heat oil in large saucepan over medium heat. Add the white and pale green parts of the green onions, 1 tablespoon cilantro, and garlic; sauté until tender, about 2 minutes. Add the curry paste; cook until fragrant, about 1 minute. Add 1 1/4 cups water, coconut milk, chiles, lime leaves, and fish sauce. Bring to simmer. Add the carrot; cover and cook until carrot is just tender, about 5 minutes.
- Layer bok choy, shrimp, scallops, and mussels in pan. Cover and simmer until mussels open and seafood and bok choy are cooked (discard mussels that do not open), about 5 minutes. Stir in the dark green parts of green onions, 2 tablespoons cilantro, and basil.
- Divide rice among four shallow bowls. Ladle curry over rice and serve.
Tips:
- Choose fresh and high-quality seafood: The fresher the seafood, the better your curry will taste. Look for seafood that is firm to the touch and has a mild, briny smell.
- Use a variety of seafood: Don't be afraid to mix and match different types of seafood in your curry. This will give your dish a more complex and flavorful taste.
- Don't overcook the seafood: Seafood cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked seafood will become tough and chewy.
- Use a good quality curry paste: The curry paste is the base of your curry, so it's important to use a good quality one. Look for a curry paste that is made with fresh ingredients and has a good balance of flavors.
- Don't be afraid to adjust the spices: The amount of spices in a curry is a matter of personal preference. If you like your curry mild, use less spices. If you like it spicy, use more.
- Serve with rice or naan: Curry is traditionally served with rice or naan. Rice is a good choice for a mild curry, while naan is a good choice for a spicy curry.
Conclusion:
Mixed seafood curry is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a flavorful and satisfying curry that the whole family will enjoy. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give mixed seafood curry a try. You won't be disappointed!
