‘Community Through Cooking’

INGREDIENTS

Curry

• 2 fillets cod

• 2 shallots, chopped

• 2 red chili peppers, chopped

• 4 cloves garlic, crushed

• 2 tsp cumin

• 2 tsp turmeric

• 2 tsp coriander

• 1 tsp ginger, minced

• 1 tsp chili powder

• 2 tbsp marsala sauce

• 3/4 cup coconut milk

• 1/2 cup vegetable broth

• 12 cherry tomatoes, sliced

• 3 bay leaves

• 1 tbsp canola oil

• salt

Side

• jasmine rice

RECIPE

After ordering Indian food two nights in a row I became curious as to what ingredients were actually in my vindaloo and decided I’d make up a fish curry dish of my own.

First, chop up your shallots and sauté them in canola oil for 8 minutes. While that’s cooking, combine the cumin, turmeric, coriander, ginger, chili powder, masala sauce and minced garlic in a mixing bowl and stir together.

Add this combination to the golden-brown shallots along with the diced chili peppers & sliced tomatoes. Cook for an additional 2 minutes.

Next, stir in the coconut milk, vegetable broth and bay leaves. Simmer for 4 minutes. Cut the cod up into medium-sized chunks and add to the curry, continuing to cook for another 6 minutes. Sample your sauce and sprinkle in some salt to bring out the flavor of the spices in your dish.

Finally, steam up a bowl of jasmine rice to serve alongside your cod curry. Garnish with a bay leaf for an added touch. Enjoy!
