Method

Heat the oil in a large deep frying pan or wok over a low heat. Add the onion and cook for 5 minutes until softened. Stir in the curry paste and fry for just a few minutes. Add the tomatoes and sweet potato and toss together well. Tip in the coconut milk and the stock or water. Bring to a simmer and cook for 8 minutes until the sauce is thickened and the sweet potato is almost tender.
Stir in the fish pieces and peas and cook for just 2-3 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the chopped coriander. Serve with pilau rice and a wedge of lime to squeeze over.
