CURRIED FISH
Though curried goat, chicken and shrimp are more popular in Jamaica than fish, food journalist Jacqui Sinclair's curry with mild mahi-mahi is a delicious and light alternative. Serve over rice.

Steps:
- Put the potatoes in a large saucepan, cover with cold water and bring to the boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook for 8-10 mins until tender. Drain and leave to steam-dry for 5 mins. Lightly crush the potatoes with a potato masher until slightly chunky.
- Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat. Fry the garlic, ginger, mustard seeds and curry powder for 1 min. Stir the spices through the potatoes, season with salt and set aside.
- Put the cod in a large saucepan over a medium heat, pour over the milk and bring to a simmer. Immediately remove from the heat, cover and set aside for 10 mins to poach. Lift the fish out with a slotted spoon, then remove and discard the skin. Flake the flesh into the potato mixture in large pieces, then fold in with the lemon zest and juice. Shape the mixture into eight fishcakes using your hands.
- Put the flour, eggs and breadcrumbs in three separate shallow bowls. Dip each fishcake in the flour, then the eggs, then the breadcrumbs. Set aside on a baking sheet. To freeze, cover and freeze on the sheet until solid, then transfer to freezerproof containers.
- Heat the remaining oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and heat the oven to low. Fry the fishcakes in batches for 5-6 mins on each side until golden and crisp. Keep warm in the oven as you cook them. Serve with the salad leaves and slaw on the side.

Tips:
- Choose the right fish: Firm-fleshed fish like cod, haddock, or halibut work best for this recipe. White fish is most commonly used, but salmon or other oily fish can also be used.
- Make sure the fish is fresh: Fresh fish will have a mild, briny smell and firm flesh. Avoid fish that smells fishy or has soft flesh.
- Cut the fish into even-sized pieces: This will help ensure that the fish cooks evenly.
- Use a light hand when coating the fish in batter: Too much batter will make the fish greasy and heavy.
- Fry the fish in hot oil: This will help create a crispy crust and prevent the fish from sticking to the pan.
- Don't overcrowd the pan: Frying the fish in batches will help prevent the oil temperature from dropping too much.
- Cook the fish until it is golden brown and flaky: This will ensure that the fish is cooked through.
- Serve the fish immediately with your favorite sides: Curried fish batter pairs well with rice, vegetables, or salad.
Conclusion:
Curried fish batter is a delicious and easy way to prepare fish. The curry powder in the batter gives the fish a unique and flavorful crust. This recipe is sure to be a hit with your family and friends. So next time you're looking for a new way to cook fish, give curried fish batter a try!
