Thai Steamed Curry Fish in green pepper or "Hor Mok Pla ; ห่อหมกปลา" in Thai. I made this recipe with banana leaves last time. I enjoyed to play with banana leave to make a small cup for the steaming of the fish. The banana leaves added the flavor to the food. I love to make this dish for my family. This time I want to try to make the Thai Steamed Curry Fish with green pepper. I used green pepper for the dish, I save some time to prepare the cup from the banana leaves and I can eat the whole green pepper. I like it. I hope you try to make it sometime. It tastes good and very easy to make it. Enjoy :-)
