Chef’s Tip

Chuchee curry also matches perfectly with prawns/shrimps, scallops or other types of fishes. You can use the sauce to cook your seafood directly inside, but this kind of plating with coated sauce enables to elevate the dish to a more sophisticated look: but either way will be super tasty !
