Recipe Notes
Variations
Meat: Instead of fish, substitute cubed pork chops, de-boned chicken, or ground beef.
Vegetables: Use chopped bell peppers, onions, mushrooms, broccoli, eggplant, or whatever you have on hand!
Seasonings: Add coconut milk, curry powder/paste, cumin, chili powder, fish sauce, or sriracha to taste. Whatever flavours you like!
For the rice, we like to use white Basmati, which we buy in bulk.
