Delicious curry with Jamaican flavours.
Ingredients
BROCCOLI SEEDED RICE
- 1 cup basmati rice
- 1½ cups water
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 head broccoli
- 50g golden raisins
- 70g pumpkin and sunflower seeds
JAMAICAN FISH CURRY
- 1 shallot
- 1 tablespoon Jamaican curry spice mix
- 1½ tablespoons tomato paste
- 1 can coconut cream (shake well before opening)
- ¼ cup water
- ½ punnet cherry tomatoes, cut in half
- 1-2 teaspoons soy sauce
- 2-3 teaspoons lemon juice
- 300g fish fillets
- 3 tablespoons picked coriander leaves
Steps
-
a full kettle to the boil.
-
Combine rice, water and salt in a medium pot and bring to the boil. As soon as it boils, cover with a tight-fitting lid and reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and leave to steam, still covered, for a further 8 minutes. Do not lift lid at any time during cooking.
-
While rice cooks, finely chop broccoli florets. Place broccoli, raisins and a pinch of salt in a medium, heat-proof bowl and cover with boiling water. Leave for 5-7 minutes, until broccoli is bright green and tender and raisins are soft. Drain well.
-
Cut shallot in half and thinly slice. Heat a drizzle of oil in a medium fry-pan on medium heat. Cook shallot for about 3 minutes, until soft. Add Jamaican spice mix and tomato paste and cook for about 1 minute, stirring, until fragrant. Add coconut cream, water, tomatoes, soy sauce and lemon juice.
-
Bring sauce to a gentle simmer. Once simmering, reduce heat to low and cook for 2 minutes. Pat fish dry with paper towels, remove any scales or bones and cut any larger fillets in half. Add fish to pan, use a spoon to evenly space pieces of fish and submerge in curry sauce.
-
Cover pan with a lid and simmer for 3-5 minutes, or until fish is just cooked through (it will flake when it is cooked). When rice has finished steaming, fluff up the grains with a fork and gently fold through broccoli, raisins and seeds. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
-
divide broccoli seeded rice between bowls, top with Jamaican fish curry and sprinkle over coriander leaves.
