    We are curry fanatics, but this was pretty bland. Although I really upped the spice count, somehow the coconut milk muted the curry flavor. The fish was good, but the sauce a little watery- had to add a little cornstarch to thicken. It wasn't terrible, but a little disappointing. - 1/22/11

    This was really excellent. I made it with tilapia and .5 TB oil. Definitely a keeper. - 6/19/10

    I made this for dinner last night, and I thought it was good; however, my TEENAGER said it was "slammin'!" - 5/8/10
