Reduce the bring to temperature to low, wrap the skillet, and let it prepare for 10 mins until the fish is opaque and flakes easily with a fork—avoid overcooking to keep it yielding.

While the curry simmers, prepare the banana leaves by briefly passing them over a gas flame for 10 seconds to make them pliable, or use parchment paper as a handy alternative.

Spoon the curry into the center of each banana leaf square, folding the edges to form a tight packet to trap steam.
