Fish Curry with Vegetables »

I’ve seen this recipe from a magazine, the photo looks so appetizing that made me want to try it. It’s different from the curry that I usually make; for one, this curry recipe has spinach. It also uses turmeric instead of curry powder, plus it has lime which I figure was because of the fish [...]
