Key Ingredients and Their Wellness Benefits

Fish

We’re choosing tender white fish such as cod or haddock—an excellent protein source that fits seamlessly into your Paleo AIP diet.

Coconut Milk

Coconut milk is the ultimate AIP-approved dairy alternative, providing creamy richness and a subtle sweetness that transports you to a tropical paradise without leaving your kitchen.

Turmeric

More than just a golden hue, turmeric is a powerful anti-inflammatory spice. Combined with ginger, it soothes digestion and adds depth to the curry’s flavor.

Lemongrass and Ginger

These aromatic ingredients bring brightness and zest, enhancing the coconut’s creaminess and invigorating your palate while staying entirely AIP-compliant.

How to Make Paleo AIP Coconut Turmeric Fish Curry

Ingredients:

• 2 tablespoons coconut oil
• 1 1/2 lbs white fish fillets (cod or haddock)
• 1 can (14 oz) full-fat coconut milk
• 1 small onion, finely chopped
• 3 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 thumb-sized piece fresh ginger, grated
• 1 stalk lemongrass, trimmed and bruised
• 1 teaspoon ground turmeric
• Salt, to taste
• Fresh cilantro, for garnish

Instructions:

1. Rinse and pat dry the fish fillets, then cut into 2-inch pieces and set aside.
2. Heat coconut oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Sauté the onion until translucent, then add garlic, ginger, and lemongrass, cooking until fragrant.
3. Stir in ground turmeric, allowing it to meld with the aromatics.
4. Pour in the coconut milk and simmer gently to blend flavors.
5. Add the fish pieces, cover, and simmer for 8-10 minutes until the fish is tender and flaky. Season with salt as desired.
6. Remove lemongrass stalk and garnish with fresh cilantro.

Pro Tips for the Perfect Paleo AIP Coconut Turmeric Fish Curry

• Use fresh ginger and lemongrass for the most vibrant flavor.
• Allow the curry to simmer slowly—patience enhances the taste.
• Adjust the ginger amount to suit your preference for warmth while keeping it Paleo AIP.
