A very easy yet really interesting way to prepare this fish. Tilapia fillets are simmered in a seasoned coconut milk sauce for a luxurious flavor. These will look beautiful served over a bed of rice. Adjust the amount of spice to your liking by adding more or less red pepper flakes.
Ingredients
- ½ cup coconut milk
- 6 whole almonds
- 2 tablespoons chopped white onion
- 1 teaspoon ground ginger
- ½ teaspoon ground turmeric
- 1 teaspoon chopped fresh lemon grass
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 4 (4 ounce) fillets tilapia
- salt and pepper to taste
- ½ teaspoon red pepper flakes, or to taste
Directions
Step 1
In a food processor or blender, combine the coconut milk, almonds, onion, ginger, turmeric, lemon grass, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Process until smooth.
Step 2
Heat a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper on both sides, then place them skin-side up in the skillet. Pour the pureed sauce over the fish. Use a spatula to coat the fish evenly with the sauce. Sprinkle with red pepper flakes.
Step 3
Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the puree is thickened and fish flakes easily with a fork.
