Instructions

  1. Prepare the seafood
    Clean and prepare all seafood. Pat dry with paper towels to remove excess moisture. Season lightly with salt and set aside in the refrigerator until needed.
  2. Create the curry base
    Heat vegetable oil in a large deep pan or wok over medium heat. Add curry paste, minced garlic, and grated ginger. Sauté for 2-3 minutes until fragrant, being careful not to burn the aromatics.
  3. Build the sauce
    Add sliced bell pepper and sauté for another 2 minutes. Pour in the coconut milk and fish stock, stirring well to combine. Bring to a simmer and add fish sauce and brown sugar. Let the sauce reduce slightly for about 5 minutes.
  4. Cook the seafood
    Add the firm white fish pieces first and simmer for 2 minutes. Then add the shrimp, mussels, and calamari. Cover and cook for 3-5 minutes until the fish is opaque, shrimp turn pink, and mussels open. Discard any mussels that remain closed after cooking.
  5. Finish the curry
    Remove from heat and stir in lime juice. Taste and adjust seasoning with more fish sauce or lime juice if needed. The curry should have a balance of spicy, savory, sweet, and sour flavors.
  6. Serve and garnish
    Ladle the seafood curry into serving bowls. Garnish generously with fresh cilantro and Thai basil leaves. Serve immediately with steamed jasmine rice or crusty bread on the side.
