salmon/prawns/scallops in spicy coconut sauce

this is a really easy and tasty seafood dish which takes 20-30 mins to prep and cook



basically you make a broth (2 tbsp laksa paste [you can adjust this up or down to adjust heat], 2 tbsp lime juice, 2tbsp fish sauce, 1/2 cup chicken stock, tbsp spoon brown sugar, 400ml coconut milk) and cook the seafood separately and then you put them together (takes 10 mins max, plus prep time about 10 mins). Garnish with coriander and chilli and spring onion. I halved the coconut milk - which was light already without any flavour impacts in my opinion. Serve with rice - you can cook this in microwave in 10-15 mins depending on amount. 1 cup of rice with 2 cups water in large bowl (no lid) and cook for 12 mins or until all water has evaporated. for larger volumes simply double or triple ingredients and increase time. 2 cups of rice take ~15mins in my microwave

Recipe came from ABC - Delicious Magazine. Not sure if you can get it online but worth a try. Flavours are equisite.
