Catfish In Red Curry Sauce Recipe
Recipe
Ingredients
2 tbsp red curry paste 4 tbsp peanut oil 2 cup coconut milk 1/2 tsp salt 1 tsp sugar 3 tbsp fish sauce 2 lb dressed catfish cut in 1 steaks 1 tbsp substitute italian basil 1 3 fresh hot chilies chopped
Recipe
Preparation
Heat the curry paste in oil, stirring for about 2 minutes over med heat. Add 1/4 cup of coconut milk and the fish sauce and simmer slowly for another 2 minutes. Add the salt, sugar and the rest of the coconut milk. Bring to a boil and, as soon as the sauce boils, add the fish. DO NOT STIR THE FISH UNTIL THE SAUCE RETURNS TO A BOIL. Chai says that if you disturb the fish before the sauce boils it will acquire a strong aroma. Simmer the fish until done, about 5 minutes. Let the dish sit for at least 15 minutes (or even as long as overnight in the refrigerator) so the curry flavor permeates the fish. Reheat, without boiling, and just before serving add the basil leaves and chilies. Serve over rice.

Dieting tips
If you wish to become slim and boost your all round health, then, as any dietician will tell you, you really should eat a thoughtfully calculated sensible daily routine. At best, this should include five measures of grains and vegetables each day and also incorporate the right mix of important nutrients.
The argument against low carb diets
Its extremely popular, but it is really safe for you?
Remember, one fact that is often overlooked, it is extremely hard (though not totally impossible) for vegetarians to adopt a low carbohydrate diet.
Scientific studies over recent years have proved that exessive consumption of animal fat can result in higher risk of cancer, heart disease and other serious conditions.
Foods containing carotenes
(includes cilantro, mangos and winter squash)
These foods contain alpha-carotene and beta-carotene believed to play a major part in preventing cancer, particularly those cancers involving the lungs. Most also have a low calorie count, so are ideal for including in your weight loss program.
