Singapore I Curry
Snapper Curry by Como Cuisine Singapore
COMO Cuisine in Singapore serves up signature favourites from their hotels and resorts around the world. Each plate is prepared from scratch using, wherever possible, organic produce and the freshest in-season ingredients that are sourced locally in the most natural and sustainable way.
One of our favourite lip-smacking dishes is the Snapper Coconut Curry served with Saffron Rice. It’s pretty easy to cook and you can make the tomato+tamarind base ahead of time. Just take a portion out of the chiller when you are ready to cook the fish.
Thank you to the talented Executive Chef Tshering Lhaden for sharing this delicious curry . Tshering’s mantra when it comes to food: Be simple, cook simple and put in lots of love. x
