1

Preheat a large shallow pot on medium heat. Add 2 tbsp of vegetable oil, shallots, a pinch of salt and black pepper. Pan-fry for 5 minutes or until shallots are translucent. Add the garlic, ginger, lemongrass, and cook for 1 minute. Add the curry paste and pan-fry for 4 minutes while stirring. Add the coconut milk, switch to low heat, and let it simmer uncovered for 10 minutes or until the sauce is reduced by 1/3. Stir occasionally.

2

Bring a large pot of water to a boil. Cook the noodles according to the packet instructions. Drain and toss the cooked noodles with the sesame oil. Keep warm.

3

Heat a non-stick skillet on medium heat. To achieve better results, pat dry the Pangasius fillets on both sides using a kitchen paper. Season with salt, black pepper and add the lime zest. Add 1 tbsp of oil to the hot pan. Pan-fry the fillets for 2 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and flaky. Keep warm while you quickly finish the sauce.

4

To the curry, add the fish sauce, honey, lime juice, sugar snap peas, and chopped cilantro. Taste and adjust the seasoning and acidity. Let it simmer for 1 minute and remove from the heat.

5

Divide the curry and noodles among 4 plates, and top with the Pangasius fillets. Add plenty of basil leaves, toasted peanuts, and sliced chili. Serve with lime wedges for squeezing. Enjoy!
