Creating a tasty Mild Shrimp Haddock Curry is all about balance and serving the right flavor profile in accordance with your guests’ preference

When creating a curry you need to be mindful of who will be eating it. If you’re cooking for a group who enjoy a meal with a powerful spicy kick, you can apply a little more heat by adding extra chilies. Alternatively, if you’re cooking for folks who prefer meals with subtle flavors, halve the amount of chilies, and maybe add a little extra coconut milk. . I can handle very spicy and aromatic flavors, so for me, I like to add extra chilies and onions to this recipe to satisfy my palate.

However, and this is important, no experimenting should take place when adding the seafood. Stick to the recipe to avoid overcooking. Both the haddock and the shrimp should go into the pan at the same time, as they take the same amount of time to cook. As soon as the shrimp and haddock become opaque, that’s it, remove your pan from the heat and serve.
