1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
4 kaffir lime leaves finely shredded

SUBSTITUTES
Use water packed galangal or 3 teaspoons
galangal powder instead of fresh

Soften the banana leaf squares in boiling water, or hold with tongs over a
gas flame. Make a 3cm diagonal cut at each corner. Lift up and fold the
edges to form a cup, stapling both sides of each corner to hold. Set aside.
Make the curry paste by processing the curry paste ingredients in a food
processor, forming a smooth paste, add a little of the coconut milk if
needed to keep the mixture turning. Transfer to a small bowl. Place the
fish in the food processor; pulse until finely ground. Add the coconut
milk, coconut cream, egg, fish sauce, sugar, pepper and curry paste, and
process to a smooth paste. Add the kaffir lime leaves and pulse two or
three times to mix. Fill each banana leaf cup with the fish mixture. Place
the cups in a two-tiered bamboo steamer. Place the steamer in a wok or on a
rack in a large saucepan above boiling water. Steam over a high heat until
cooked about 15 minutes, adding boiling water to the wok after 10 minutes.
Serve hot or at room temperature.
