Ingredients
Cod, Salmon or Prawns (approx. 250 g Cod, fillet )
1 tsp of ground garlic (Can be omitted if FODMAP)
1 thumb-sized piece Ginger or 1 tsp of ground ginger
1 small Onion (Can be omitted if FODMAP)
100 g Spinach (Tomatoes can be used instead if you are not keen on Spinach).
1 can Coconut milk, give the can a good shake before opening.
1 tbsp Garam Masala Blend or Ras el Hanout Blend or Tandoori Masala Blend
1 tsp Paprika, smoked (omit if you are not keen on Paprika)
1 tsp Turmeric for added fragrance
2 tbsp Groundnut oil (Olive Oil is fine to use as well)
Serve with boiled basmati rice.
METHOD
- In a small bowl, combine the spices.
- Coat the fish with half the spice mixture and leave to one side.
- In a medium lidded frying pan, heat the oil over a medium heat so it is hot but not spitting. Add the chopped onion, garlic and ginger, and warm for approx. 8 mins until softened.
- Add and stir in the remaining spice mix and gently cook for 1 min to release the flavour of the spices.
- Pour in the shaken coconut milk, bring to the boil (small bubbles will start to show) and simmer for 3-5 mins to reduce slightly.
- Then add the fish and spinach. Place the lid securely on and continue to cook for 5 mins or so until the spinach has wilted and the fish is cooked through. (If you gently place a knife in the fish the flakes should separate easily).
- Season to taste and serve with basmati rice. You may not want to season with salt and pepper, as the other flavours will be sufficient, so taste the dish beforehand.
