Ingredients
  

1 lb white fish fillets (such as cod, halibut, or snapper), cut into bite-sized pieces

1 can (14 oz) coconut milk

2 cups fish or vegetable broth

1 medium onion, finely chopped

2 cloves garlic, minced

1 inch fresh ginger, grated

1 red bell pepper, diced

1 cup cherry tomatoes, halved

1 lime (zest and juice)

1 tablespoon fish sauce (optional)

1 tablespoon olive oil

1 teaspoon turmeric powder

1 teaspoon ground coriander

1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes (adjust to taste)

Fresh cilantro or parsley, chopped (for garnish)

Salt and pepper, to taste

Instructions
 

Sauté the Aromatics: In a large pot, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until translucent, about 5 minutes. Stir in the minced garlic and grated ginger, cooking for another minute until fragrant.

    Add Vegetables and Spices: Add the diced red bell pepper, turmeric, ground coriander, and crushed red pepper flakes to the pot. Stir, allowing them to cook for 2-3 minutes until the bell peppers soften.

      Pour in the Liquids: Slowly add the coconut milk and fish or vegetable broth to the pot. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer.

        Incorporate Tomatoes and Fish: Add the halved cherry tomatoes, lime zest, and fish sauce if using. Gently stir in the fish pieces, being careful not to break them apart. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Allow the soup to simmer for 8-10 minutes until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.

          Finish with Lime Juice: Before serving, stir in the lime juice for that fresh zesty flavor. Adjust seasoning as needed.

            Serve and Garnish: Ladle the soup into bowls and garnish with freshly chopped cilantro or parsley. Serve warm with crusty bread or rice if desired.
