COD FILLETS WITH CILANTRO YOGURT SAUCE
This cooling herbed yogurt sauce is adapted from the chef Yotam Ottolenghi in London, who serves it with leek fritters. But it's wonderful with mild fish like cod. The fish, while delicious, is utterly simple: fillets baked in a 300-degree oven until opaque, 10 to 20 minutes depending on the thickness of the pieces. It is the sauce that is the star, and that comes together quickly in a food processor. Combine roughly chopped cilantro and parsley, garlic that has been mashed to a paste, lemon juice, olive oil, salt and yogurt. (Whole-milk yogurt would be best for body and flavor, while low-fat is O.K., and nonfat untenable.) Process until the mixture is smooth and green. There will be sauce left over, which you can use on yet more fish, or as a dip for vegetables or fritters, anything that would thrive when dunked in the refreshing, herb-graced sauce.

Steps:
- To make the sauce, coarsely chop the cilantro and the parsley leaves. In a mortar and pestle, mash the garlic with a pinch of salt. Place the cilantro and parsley in a food processor fitted with the steel blade and process until finely chopped. Add the garlic, lemon juice, olive oil, about 1/2 teaspoon salt (or to taste), and the yogurt and process until the mixture is smooth and green. Transfer to a bowl.
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees. Line a sheet pan with foil and oil the foil. Season the fish fillets with salt and pepper and lay on the foil. Place a pan of just boiled water on the floor of your oven and place the baking sheet with the fish in the oven on the middle rack. Bake 10 to 20 minutes, depending on the thickness of the fillets, until the fish is opaque on the surface and you can pull it apart with a fork.
- Remove the fish from the oven, transfer to plates or a platter, and spoon on the sauce. Garnish with lemon wedges and serve.

FISH IN CILANTRO SAUCE
I use blue hake fillets (from Schwan's) but any white fish would work nicely here. If you're not a cilantro lover, you can substitute parsley.

Steps:
- Thaw fish if frozen.
- Cook onion and garlic in oil till tender but not brown.
- Add the almonds, lime juice, jalepeno, salt& pepper.
- Heat through.

- Top with onion mixture, and sprinkle evenly with cilantro.

Tips:
- For a creamy sauce, use full-fat yogurt. Greek yogurt can also be used, but it will result in a thicker sauce. - To make the sauce more flavorful, use fresh cilantro. If you don't have fresh cilantro, you can use dried cilantro, but use only about half the amount, as it is more concentrated. - Add a squeeze of lime or lemon juice to the sauce for a brighter flavor. - If you like spicy food, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or red pepper flakes to the sauce. - Serve the sauce immediately or store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.Conclusion:
Yogurt cilantro sauce is a versatile sauce that can be used on a variety of dishes, from fish to chicken to vegetables. It is a healthy and flavorful sauce that is easy to make. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a delicious sauce that will add flavor to your next meal.
