Time 35m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

1/2 cup coconut milk
6 whole almonds
1 small white onion, chopped
1 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon fresh lemongrass, chopped
1/4 teaspoon salt
4 (4 ounce) tilapia fillets
salt and pepper
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes (to taste)

Steps:

  • 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.
  • 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.
  • Reduce heat to medium, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, until the puree is thickened and fish flakes easily with a fork.

This recipe is a waste of money. The ingredients are expensive and the fish didn't turn out that great.

This recipe is way too complicated. I don't have time to spend hours in the kitchen.

This recipe is missing some key ingredients. It doesn't call for any garlic or ginger, which are essential in Thai cooking.

I followed the recipe exactly and the tilapia turned out dry and overcooked. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This recipe was a bit too spicy for my taste, but it was still good. I'll definitely try it again with less chili peppers.

I'm not a big fan of tilapia, but this recipe changed my mind. The fish was cooked perfectly and the sauce was delicious.

I wasn't sure about this recipe at first, but I'm so glad I tried it! The tilapia was moist and flaky and the sauce was amazing.
