Method

1.  Heat 2 tablespoons of oil in a large dish on the pizza stone with a high flame.
Peel, finely slice and add the onion along with the curry paste, mix well and then cook for 10 minutes, or until the onion is soft and golden. Stirring occasionally, add in the garlic and ginger paste and mix.

2. Add the peppers and cook for 5 minutes, keeping they flame rather high on the bottom of the pizza stone to get a nice searing heat.

3. Finely chop the chilli, pick the coriander leave  and finely slice the stalks.
Reduce the heat by opening the bottom door or add a large piece of wood to drop the temperature.

4. Add the coconut milk and mix together.

5. Then add in the beansprouts.

6. Remove the lid and cook for a further 5 minutes. Add the diced fish and let poach in the sauce.

7. Scatter over the coriander leaves, or some nice sriracha sauce and a squeeze of fresh lime, then serve.

To make your own paste:
