Went to an asian foods store and bought powdered coconut creme and Panang Curry paste in a pouch. Still toying with how to make Trout Panang Curry as far as prepping the fish. I may just cut them up lengthwise and just remove the spine and bones from each piece after simmering. Put this over instant rice and it should be pretty darn good.
