ORANGE ROUGHY IN ORANGE SAUCE



Orange Roughy in Orange Sauce image

I really enjoyed this fish -- first time I really enjoyed poached fish -- but this was great. Good with or without the lavender. Recipe source: local newspaper which was originally printed in Cooking with Lavender.

Categories     One Dish Meal

Time 20m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 large orange roughy fillet (mine was a little over 1/2 pound)
pepper
1 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons dried lavender
2 carrots, peeled and cut into julienne stripes
3 scallions, sliced into julienne strips
1 teaspoon peanut oil
1 cup white wine
2 tablespoons orange liqueur (I skipped the liqueur) (optional)

Steps:

  • Pepper both sides of the fish.
  • Pour orange juice in a measuring cup (I used ready-made but imagine freshly squeezed from 2 oranges will be so much better), stir in lavender and white wine and set aside.
  • Heat peanut oil (or use unsalted butter) in small skillet, stirring to coat until tender (5 minutes).
  • Meanwhile in a large skillet, suitable for poaching fish, add orange juice mixture and bring to a boil over medium high heat. Add fish and lower heat to a simmer until fish is tender and flakes with a fork (10 - 15 minutes). Remove fish to a platter and keep warm.
  • Add orange liqueur, if using, to pan and turn up heat and reduce by half. Return fish to pan until heated through.
  • Place fish on plates and top with vegetables, spooning sauce over fish.

Yield Makes 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 6-ounce orange roughy fillets or red snapper fillets (each about 1/2 to 3/4 inch thick)
3 teaspoons garam masala
2 tablespoons (1/4 stick) butter
1 14 1/2-ounce can diced tomatoes with mild green chilies, undrained
4 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro
1/2 cup plain yogurt

Steps:

  • Sprinkle fish on both sides with salt and pepper, then with 1 teaspoon garam masala, dividing equally. Melt butter in heavy large skillet over medium heat. Add fish and cook until opaque in center, about 2 1/2 minutes per side. Transfer fish to platter (do not clean skillet).

Simmer over medium-low heat until slightly thickened, scraping up any browned bits, about 2 minutes. Season with salt and pepper. Spoon sauce over fish. Top with yogurt and sprinkle with cilantro.

Tips:

  • For the freshest flavor, use wild-caught orange roughy fillets.

  • If you don't have time to make tartar sauce, you can use a store-bought brand. Just be sure to choose a tartar sauce that is made with real mayonnaise and not a salad dressing.
