Fish Curry with Tamarind
Tangy tamarind, creamy coconut milk and a homemade spice paste give this grouper and vegetable curry many layers of deep flavor. If you're feeling particularly adventurous, follow Zak Pelaccio's lead and ask your fishmonger to give you a fish head or two to add to the pot. More Asian Recipes

Notes
Belacan is a pungent seasoning made by grinding small shrimp into a paste that is fermented, dried and pressed into cakes. Belacan is often toasted before being used. It can be ordered from indomart.us.
Suggested Pairing
The warm climate of Napa Valley tends to produce particularly voluptuous bottlings of Chardonnay, ideal partners for this luscious curry.
