Savoury Assam Fish Head Curry

The one thing that makes me the happiest Momsie is my Piggies love curries! And the best thing that could have ever happened in my life is having them as my Piggies ( they are my free food taster ) …haha I can imagine the scenario as they read this post, their nostrils sniffing in air and oinking away. Well, over the weekend, I managed to cook up this mouth watering and savoury Assam Fish Head Curry with a red snapper’s head I bought from the market…..ok, ok, only Asians love fish heads :p Do you know that the best part of a fish is the head….the smooth and velvety texture of meat could be found here! Those jelly like texture around the lips and around the eyes have me and Piggy gal fighting over those delicious part…so to be fair, she took the left side of the head and I took the right side of the fish head….ok ,ok so no fighting ! :) :) Piggy boy said we were disgusting , eating and sucking out the eyes. But he will only eat the meaty part unlike the sister and momsie attacking the fish head like some , excuse the pun , “ head hunters from the uncivilization ” LOL! Isn’t he adorable…I love my Piggies..they say the darndest thing !

Back to cooking this mouth watering curry . As you know of late, I discovered a stall, a real gem for curry lovers , at the Kg.Simee market , selling this ready cooked curry paste that tasted marvelous and many people I met have the same opinion like me. Thumbs up all the way for this ready cooked curry paste and it has make cooking curries so simple and easy for even those busy working class people like me. Sorry, I am not a share holder but sharing this ' gem ' to all Ipohans :)))

All I have to do is just add in the fish head, some tamarind juice for extra tanginess , some coconut milk/evaporated milk , fresh tomatoes and some okra. Simmer until the fish head is cooked . Easy isn’t it? LOL ! I am so blessed, so are my Piggies ! A delicious and mouth watering dish in just 40 minutes! And a hearty dinner with just this one dish ;p :))
