Salted Fish Mixed Vegetable Curry

My hubby made some salted fish from the fishes he caught.  Shared some with my neighbours and kept some to cook this curry.  Cockles can also be added to it, but this time I didn't cos' we only wanted to savour the mixed vegetables and the gravy.

We had this curry with Greek Olga Bread [recipe here].  A simple meal that can be prepared earlier.  Just warm up the bread in the oven and heat up the curry........and the meal is ready.

Ingredients
[serves 3-4]

100 gm long beans - cut 3 cm lengths

100 gm cabbage - break into small pieces

1 brinjal [about 200 gm] - cut into wedges

5 pieces of salted fish - rinsed and soaked for 5-10 minutes [depends on the saltiness of the salted fish]
100 gm prawns - head removed

1 large onion

2 cloves garlic

1 cm piece ginger

1. Blend onion, garlic and ginger in a food processor then combine with curry powder, chilli paste, tumeric powder and ground almond.
2. Heat oil in wok, pan fry salted fish pieces until aromatic and browned.  Remove and set aside.  Using the same wok saute spice ingredients until aromatic.  Add in 1/2 tsp salt.  Fry until oil separates.
