2 tablespoons oil
1 large onion, sliced into wedges
1 clove garlic
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 (50 g) packet green curry paste
1 (400 ml) can coconut milk (I use light)
1 cup water
1 tablespoon lime juice
1 tablespoon fish sauce
600 g fish, a white firm,strong flavoured fish is best,cut into about 2 1/2 cm chunks (we used trevally)
1 green chili, sliced

1
Heat the oil in a large wok, and fry the onion, ginger and garlic for about 5 minutes or until softened.
2
Add the green curry paste, and fry for another 2 minutes.
3
Add the coconut milk, water, lime juice and fish sauce and bring to the boil.

Reduce to a simmer and add the fish, and any of the longer-to-cook vegetables you have chosen and cook for about 5 minutes (I added the beans along with the fish).

Also add about half the fresh coriander.
6
Add the remaining softer vegetables, and cook for a further 2-3 minutes, being careful not to overcook the fish, or knock it around too much as you stir through the vegetables.
