Instructions:

1. Preparation:
- Peel and finely chop the onion.
- Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into bite-sized pieces.

2. Cooking the Base:

3. Adding the Bulk of Ingredients:
- Pour in 1 cup (230g) of fish sauce and 2 cups (460g) of coconut milk. Stir to combine.

4. Adding the Fish and Veggies:
- Gently add the chunks of white fish and 1 cup (230g) of green beans to the curry mixture.
- Continue to simmer for another 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and cooked through, and the green beans are tender but still vibrant.
5. Final Seasoning:
- Stir in 2 tsp (6g) of brown sugar to balance the flavors.
- Add 2 tbsp (30g) of fish sauce for additional depth and saltiness.
- Squeeze in 1 tbsp (16g) of lime juice to add brightness and acidity to the curry. Stir well to combine.
6. Serve:
- Taste the curry and adjust the seasoning if necessary (more fish sauce, lime juice, or sugar to taste).
- Serve hot over steamed rice or with flatbread. Garnish with fresh herbs like cilantro if desired.

Tips:

- Use fresh, high-quality white fish to ensure the best flavor and texture.
