COCONUT CURRY FISH



Coconut Curry Fish image

Jamaican curry powder plays a major role in this deeply savory weeknight dish, giving the sauce its unique flavor and golden hue. The traditional spice blend is heavy on the turmeric, and benefits from being toasted, which brings out its notes. This recipe calls for frozen whiting, which doesn't hold up to frying but shines here, simmered in a sauce studded with red and green bell peppers. If whiting is unavailable, cod is also a good choice.

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons olive oil
2 medium red bell peppers, deseeded and sliced into 1/4-inch-thick strips
2 medium green bell peppers, deseeded and sliced into 1/4-inch-thick strips
1 medium onion, sliced
Kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons Jamaican curry powder (hot or mild)
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon grated ginger
4 (6-ounce) fillets frozen fish, such as whiting or cod
1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
1 lime
2 scallions, trimmed and thinly sliced, for garnish
Fresh cilantro leaves and tender stems, for garnish
White rice or couscous, for serving

Steps:

  • Heat a medium (10-inch) saucepan with deep sides over medium-high. Drizzle in olive oil to cover the bottom of the pan. Add red and green bell peppers and onion, and sauté until softened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Add the curry powder to the pan, and toast for about 1 minute, stirring often to keep the curry from scorching. Stir in the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Stir in the grated ginger and cook until fragrant, about 30 seconds.
  • Place fish on top of cooked vegetables, or nestle them into the vegetables, if your pan is becoming too full. Pour coconut milk over fish and vegetables.
  • Cover and simmer over medium-low until fish is cooked and starts to flake, about 20 minutes. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper. Squeeze lime to taste over the top and garnish with scallions and cilantro. Serve with white rice or couscous.

Tips:

  • Choose the right fish: Firm-fleshed fish like salmon, cod, and tilapia are best for curry. They can withstand the cooking process without falling apart.
  • Make a flavorful marinade: Marinating the fish in a mixture of spices, herbs, and yogurt or buttermilk helps infuse it with flavor and keeps it moist during cooking.
  • Use a hot pan: When searing the fish, make sure the pan is hot enough to create a crispy crust. This will help lock in the flavor and prevent the fish from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: When cooking the fish, don't overcrowd the pan. This will prevent the fish from cooking evenly and can result in steamed fish instead of seared fish.
  • Simmer the curry gently: Once the fish is seared, simmer the curry gently over low heat. This will help the flavors meld together and create a rich and flavorful sauce.
  • Serve with rice or naan: Curry fish is traditionally served with rice or naan. Rice is a great way to soak up the flavorful sauce, while naan can be used to scoop up the fish and vegetables.

Conclusion:

Curry fish is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to add variety to your weeknight meals and is perfect for special occasions. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a delicious curry fish dish that will impress your family and friends.
