Heart in Scripture is used in various ways. Sometimes it means our reason or understanding, sometimes our affections and emotion, and sometimes our will. Generally it denotes the whole soul of man and all its faculties, not individually, but as they all work together in doing good or evil. The mind as it reasons, discerns, and judges; the emotions as they like or dislike; the conscience as it determines and warns; and the will as it chooses or refuses – are all together called the heart.

INGREDIENTS

2	tb	Red curry paste
4	tb	Peanut oil
2	c	Coconut milk
1/2	ts	Salt
1	ts	Sugar
3	tb	Fish sauce
2	lb	Dressed catfish cut in
		Steaks
1	tb	Substitute Italian basil
1		3 fresh hot chilies chopped

INSTRUCTIONS

Heat the curry paste in oil, stirring for about 2 minutes over med
heat. Add 1/4 cup of coconut milk and the fish sauce and simmer
slowly for another 2 minutes. Add the salt, sugar and the rest of the
coconut milk. Bring to a boil and, as soon as the sauce boils, add
the fish. DO NOT STIR THE FISH UNTIL THE SAUCE RETURNS TO A BOIL.
Chai says that if you disturb the fish before the sauce boils it will
acquire a strong aroma. Simmer the fish until done, about 5 minutes.
Let the dish sit for at least 15 minutes (or even as long as
overnight in the refrigerator) so the curry flavor permeates the
fish. Reheat, without boiling, and just before serving add the basil
leaves and chilies. Serve over rice.
