Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 medium onion, thinly sliced
4 garlic cloves, minced
4 teaspoons curry powder
2 13 1/2- to 14-ounce cans unsweetened coconut milk
1 cup chicken stock or canned low-salt chicken broth
2 medium carrots, peeled, cut into matchstick-size pieces
4 5- to 6-ounce sea bass fillets
4 green onions, thinly sliced

Steps:

  • Heat oil in heavy medium saucepan over medium heat. Add onion, garlic and curry powder. Sauté mixture until onions are translucent, about 4 minutes. Mix in coconut milk and stock; bring to boil. Reduce heat to medium-high and boil until liquid is reduced to thin sauce consistency, about 50 minutes. Add carrots; simmer until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Remove from heat; keep warm.
  • Preheat broiler. Place fish on baking sheet; sprinkle with salt and pepper. Broil fish until just opaque in center, about 8 minutes. Using metal spatula, transfer fish to plates. Spoon sauce over fish. Sprinkle with green onions.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: Select a fresh, firm sea bass fillet with a mild, sweet flavor.
  • Prepare the coconut milk: Use full-fat coconut milk for a rich, creamy sauce. If using canned coconut milk, be sure to stir well before measuring.
  • Add aromatics: Elevate the flavor of the dish with aromatics like lemongrass, ginger, and garlic.
  • Pack with vegetables: Incorporate a variety of vegetables such as bell peppers, carrots, and onions for added texture and nutrition.
  • Season well: Don't be shy with the spices! A combination of salt, pepper, paprika, and cumin will bring out the best in the fish and vegetables.
  • Bake to perfection: Bake the sea bass in a preheated oven until the fish is flaky and the vegetables are tender. The exact cooking time may vary depending on the thickness of the fish fillets.

Conclusion:

This baked sea bass in coconut milk is a delightful dish that combines tender fish, creamy coconut sauce, and an array of flavorful vegetables.
