Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 30 minutes
Total time: 40 minutes
Servings: 4

Ingredients:
- 2 tablespoons curry powder
- 400 ml coconut milk
- 400 ml water
- 8 small potatoes, peeled and halved
- 200 g cherry tomatoes
- 500 g white fish fillets (cod, sea bream, or any fish of your choice), cut into cubes or left whole
- 1 teaspoon coriander seeds
- 4 lemons (2 juiced and 2 sliced)
- 2 tablespoons cornstarch dissolved in 100 ml cold water

Preparation:
1. Start by gathering all the necessary ingredients. Make sure the fish is fresh and the cherry tomatoes are ripe and flavorful. These little details will make a difference in the dish.

2. In a large pot, add the coconut milk and water. Place it over medium heat and stir well to combine the two liquids. Adding coconut milk will give a rich and creamy flavor to the curry.

3. Add the curry powder to the coconut milk and water mixture. Stir well to evenly distribute the spices. The curry is the key to this dish, so don't skimp on the quantity. I recommend using a high-quality curry for the best flavors.

4. Once the mixture starts to boil, add the halved potatoes. They will add substance and absorb the flavors. Let them boil for about 15 minutes, or until they become tender but not fully cooked.

5. After the potatoes are cooked, add the cherry tomatoes and fish cubes. The tomatoes will add a note of acidity and sweetness, while the fish will become tender and flavorful. Let them boil together for 8-10 minutes, until the fish is fully cooked. Make sure not to overcook them, as the fish can become dry.

6. In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in cold water. This will help thicken the sauce. Add it to the pot, stirring constantly, and let everything boil for another 3-5 minutes. You will notice how the sauce becomes creamy and delicious.

7. Finally, add the coriander seeds and the juice from the two juiced lemons. These will bring a touch of freshness and a citrus aroma that will balance the rich flavor of the curry.

8. Serve the dish warm, garnished with lemon slices. It is delicious alongside basmati rice or quinoa, which will absorb the aromatic sauce.

Useful tips:
- You can use any type of white fish you prefer, but make sure it is fresh for the best results.
- If you want a vegetarian version, you can replace the fish with tofu or vegetables like cauliflower and zucchini.
- Add a little fresh chili or chili flakes if you prefer a spicy curry.
- If you don't have coriander seeds, you can also use other aromatic spices like cumin or turmeric.

Nutritional information:
This recipe is rich in protein due to the fish and contains healthy fats from the coconut milk. The cherry tomatoes add vitamins and antioxidants, while the potatoes provide complex carbohydrates. It is a nutritious and filling dish, perfect for an evening meal.

Frequently asked questions:
1. Can I use light coconut milk?
Yes, but keep in mind that the sauce will be less creamy.
2. What else can I add to the curry?
You can experiment with vegetables like carrots, peas, or bell peppers.
