Fish Curry

Fish Curry

This fish curry is perfect for that wintery day! It is delicious, easy to make, low in calories and healthy! What more could you ask for! I have substituted a tablespoon of coconut instead of coconut milk so the flavour isn't compromised but the calories are slashed! The nutritional information and calories are base on 4 large servings but you can stretch it out to 6 servings at a measly 247 calories per serve
