This was pretty good. I would say to not use as much yogurt, or omit it all together-- I liked it better before I added it all. I also steamed some chopped sweet potato and added that in, and it was awesome. Cilantro helps too. However, it's a waste to use monkfish in this recipe. Monkfish is expensive and this recipe drowns out the flavor of the fish to the point where I wish I would have used haddock instead. Otherwise I'd give this 4 stars!

I will give this 4 INSTEAD OF 5 stars, only because my husband said it was too spicy and not outstanding. But I thought it was Awesome!!! It may be the type of curry powder I used.. maybe it is an extra spicy variety? I did not have any yogurt so I used just about two tablespoons light sourcream instead. I also added some chopped fresh cilantro at the very end prior to serving, Yum!

Changing this to 5 stars. The key for me was eating it after it had sat for a few hours--even better than made fresh. I'll always make this in advance from now on. And, once again, no yougurt, just the sauce it makes. A super healthy, almost no fat dish! Very easy and fast, and I even had to thaw the monkfish and it was still done in half an hour! Added some extra onions and garlic, used chopped fresh tomatoes. Still needs a bit of extra taste, I may try a bit more curry powder. Also added some spinach for color. I'm not sure if I will add the yogurt or not, doesn't need much more in the way of liquid--may I'll drain one, and add it after draining. Thanks!
