Overall, this was a good recipe. The fish was cooked well and the sauce was flavorful, but it was a bit too salty for my taste.

The sauce was a bit too thin for my liking, but the flavor was great. I would recommend thickening the sauce with a cornstarch slurry next time.

This dish was a bit too spicy for my taste, but overall it was still good. I would recommend using less chili pepper next time.

I love this recipe! The coconut sauce is so flavorful and the fish is cooked perfectly. I usually serve it over rice, but it's also great with noodles.
