Spicy Coconut Seafood Stew
SERVES 4
4 cod fillets (approximately 100g each) 2 tablespoons olive oil
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons butter
2 garlic cloves, sliced
1 yellow onion, finely chopped
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
2 stalks lemongrass, bruised
2 tablespoons fish sauce
2 chilli padi, chopped
1 cup white wine
1kg live mussels, washed, and de-bearded
Juice of 1 large lime
2 sprigs coriander, roughly chopped
2 kaffir lime leaves, finely sliced
DIRECTIONS
- Heat the oven to 230 degrees Celsius. Season the fish fillets with olive oil, salt and pepper. Place the fillets on a tray and bake in the oven for 10 minutes or till cooked through. Place the fillets in a big bowl each. Keep warm.
- In the meantime, melt the butter in a pot, and cook
the garlic and onion for 5 minutes. Add the turmeric, lemongrass, fish sauce and chilli padi. When the onion has turned translucent, add the white wine. Let it come to a boil and then, add the mussels. Cover the pot
with the lid. Leave the mussels on high heat for 2 to 3 minutes, shaking the pot from time to time. - Remove the lid. The mussels should all be open (discard any un-opened ones). And add the coconut milk. Once it starts to bubble, turn off the heat and add the lime juice. Give it a good stir and pour into the bowls with the fish fillets. Garnish with chopped coriander and kaffir lime leaf. Serve immediately with some crusty bread or rice to soak up all that lovely sauce!

IN MEMORY OF A loving husband, a role model to his children, a selfless best friend, is what he was. His battle with cancer had been nothing but him fighting it with his resilience & determination. PCC & CanHope had brought him joy. I will remember his journey and pass it on. I’M A SURVIVOR My name is Andi and I'm a cancer survivor.Back in 2004 when I was 16 yo, I was diagnosed with Leiomyosarcoma, it was at the right side of my buttock. Surgery, radiation and also chemotherapy was done at that time. Then in 2009 it relapsed around the same area. In 2022 it relapsed on my right thigh, and again in 2024 it relapsed this time on my left thigh with different type of cancer. Be thankful to GOD, and always believe that He is able to heal us and help us.
