Method

  1. Put the rice in a lidded saucepan with 240ml water and a pinch of salt. Bring to the boil, cover tightly, then turn down the heat to as low as it will go and cook for 15 minutes, without removing the lid.
  2. Chop the fish into chunks. In a bowl, mix the turmeric and yogurt, then crush in the garlic. Season well, gently stir in the fish to coat and leave to marinate for 10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a large wok or frying pan over a low-medium heat. Chop the onion, add to the butter and stir. Fry gently for 10 minutes or until softened.
  4. Add the ground coriander and garam masala, stir for 1 minute, then add the fish and marinade and bring to a simmer. Cover and gently simmer for 7 minutes or until the fish is cooked through. Add a splash of water if you think it needs it. Taste, seasoning if necessary.
  5. Take the rice off the heat, remove the lid and fluff up with a fork. Chop the fresh coriander. Serve the curried fish in bowls along with the rice, sprinkled with the fresh coriander.

  1. My husband and I have lost 5 stone in the last 18 months between us and trying to find tasty and interesting dishes to help us maintain our healthy eating regime can be difficult . This fish curry fits the bill completly. A little high in Carbs but a definite weekend treat. Delicious!

  2. I love this recipe because as a huge fish lover, and a curry lover (korma is my fave) who rarely eats curry in an effort to eat as healthily as possible, this recipe is a triple win- it’s fishy, curry-y and healthy!

  3. I love this recipe because it has everything a healthy balanced meal should have whilst still being a delicious curry. The white fish is light and fluffy to complement the heavier taste of the tumeric. YUM.
