Let’s get cooking.
- 01
Pat fish dry and cut into 4 portions. Rub with lemon, half the salt and a little turmeric. Chop onion and tomato; mince ginger and garlic.
- 02
Fry onion in oil for 6 minutes. Add ginger, garlic, tomatoes, remaining salt and spices; cook 7–8 minutes until thick. Add water and bring to a gentle simmer.
- 03
Nestle fish in the sauce, cover and cook gently for 8–12 minutes depending on thickness, until opaque and flaking. Spoon sauce over rather than stirring vigorously. Finish with coriander.
A little kitchen care
Use a food thermometer: poultry 74°C, ground beef 71°C, fish 63°C. Cook eggs until whites and yolks are firm. Keep raw and ready-to-eat foods separate.
