Introduction
Adapted from a Martha Stewart recipe that originally used chicken and full fat coconut milk, this altered version makes use of frozen flounder filets. For folks who don't usually like fish, poaching a tender, white fleshed fish in a delicately spiced broth of coconut milk and vegetables seems to make it acceptable; for some of us this preparation is a true delight and makes for an elegant winter supper served with a green salad and a good white wine.
