1 teaspoon fish sauce

2 tablespoons mild red curry paste

50g green beans, chopped finely Deep frying oil

Sweet chilli dipping sauce Coriander leaves

Sea salt flakes

1.Using the processing bowl fitted with the processing blade, process the fish, fish sauce and paste on speed 5 for 30- 40 seconds or until the consistency is a smooth paste.
