Ingredients
Rice
- 1/2 cup basmati rice
- 3/4 cups boiling water
- 1/2 pack baby spinach
Yoghurt
- 2 Tbsp yoghurt
- Zest & juice of 1/4 lemon
Fish
- 1 pack market fish
- 1 Tbsp tandoori mayonnaise
- 1 pack almonds & coconut
To Serve
- 1/2 Lebanese cucumber, cut into batons
- 1/4 lemon, cut into wedges
Steps
-
Preheat oven to 220°C. Bring a kettle to the boil. Bring a pot of salted water to the boil. Cook rice. Combine rice, boiling water measure and a pinch of salt in a pot and bring to the boil with the lid on. Once boiling, reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and steam, covered, for 5 more minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Prep yoghurt. In a bowl, combine yoghurt, lemon zest and juice. Season to taste.
-
Prep fish. Pat fish dry and remove any scales or bones. Lay in a single layer on a lined oven tray and season. Evenly spread tandoori mayonnaise over each fillet then sprinkle over almonds and coconut mixture.
-
Cook fish. While rice steams, bake fish in oven for about 6 minutes (depending on thickness), until fish is just cooked through and coconut and almonds are golden (check often to avoid burning).
-
To finish. When rice has finished steaming, gently fold through baby spinach. Season to taste. Prep cucumber and lemon.
-
Serve rice topped with fish and lemon yoghurt. Serve cucumber and a lemon wedge on the side.
