 chill. In a large bowl combine the wakame, scallions, onion, daikon, seaweed, 
 and browned, chilled fish cubes. In a mixing bowl combine the Koon Chun, fish 
 sauce, garlic, and sake. Slowly whisk in the combined curry and peanut oils. 
 Toss the wakame mixture with the Koon Chun dressing. Refrigerate for 1/2 hour. 
 Mix together the curry powder, bay leaf, and peanut oil in a saucepan. Bring 
 curry oil to a simmer. Chill, strain, and reserve. Immediately before serving, 
 mix cilantro with chilled fish mixture. Garnish with macadamia nuts and 
 coconut flakes and drizzle with curry oil.
