Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons canola oil
4 white fish fillets
1 onion, coarsely chopped
4 cloves garlic, roughly chopped
1 (1 inch) piece fresh ginger root, peeled and chopped

1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon white sugar
½ cup chopped tomato
¼ cup vegetable broth

Categories     Australian

Time 29m

Yield 2 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

400 g fish, firm feshed white, cut into serving pieces
4 tablespoons natural yogurt
2 teaspoons lemon juice
1 teaspoon salt
1 hot red chili pepper, finely minced
2 teaspoons grated fresh ginger
1 teaspoon crushed garlic
1 teaspoon cumin powder
1 teaspoon coriander powder
1/2 teaspoon turmeric powder
fresh coriander (to garnish)

Steps:

  • Mix all ingredients except fish in a large non-reactive bowl. Add the fish pieces, coat well, and set aside for 20 minutes.
  • Heat a pan over medium heat, spray with cooking spray and add the fish. Cook for about three minutes, then flip over and cook a further minute or two or until cooked through (depends of course on the thickness of your filllets).
  • Serve with a little coriander sprinkled over.

Tips:

  • Choose the Right Fish: For this recipe, firm-fleshed fish like salmon, halibut, or tilapia are best. They can withstand the cooking process without falling apart.
  • Marinate the Fish: Marinating the fish in a mixture of yogurt, spices, and herbs helps infuse flavor and keep it moist during cooking.
  • Use a Hot Oven: A high oven temperature helps to create a crispy outer layer while keeping the inside of the fish tender and juicy.
  • Don't Overcook the Fish: Fish cooks quickly, so be careful not to overcook it. Overcooked fish becomes dry and tough.
  • Serve with Sides: Serve the fish with a variety of sides like steamed rice, grilled vegetables, or a refreshing salad.
