Method

1

Prepare the seafood: Rinse the fish, mussels, and scallops. Scrub the mussels to remove any debris. Discard any mussels that are open and do not close when tapped.

2

Sauté aromatics: In a large pot or Dutch oven, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5 minutes. Add the minced garlic and grated ginger, and cook for another minute until fragrant.

3

Add Laksa paste: Stir in the Laksa paste and cook for 1-2 minutes, allowing the flavors to bloom.

4

Add liquids: Pour in the fish broth and coconut milk. Bring to a simmer.

5

Cook the fish: Gently add the white fish to the simmering broth. Cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.

6

Add mussels and scallops: Add the mussels and scallops to the pot. Cover and cook for about 5-7 minutes, or until the mussels have opened and the scallops are cooked through. Discard any mussels that do not open.

7

Season and serve: Season the chowder with salt and pepper to taste. Squeeze fresh lime juice over the chowder. Garnish with fresh cilantro. Serve hot and enjoy!
