Ingredients
Poppy Seed Rice
- 1 pack rice spices
- 1/2 cup basmati rice
- 3/4 cup boiling water
- 1/2 cup frozen peas
Fish
- 1 pack green beans
- 1 pack market fish
- 1 pack Indian spices
- 2 tsp butter
- 1 clove garlic, minced
To Serve
- 1 Tbsp yoghurt
- 1 bunch coriander, chopped
Steps
-
Cook rice Bring a full kettle to the boil. Add rice spices, rice, boiling water measure and a pinch of salt to a medium pot and bring to the boil with a lid on. Reduce to lowest heat to cook for 12 minutes. Turn off heat and steam, covered, for 5 more minutes. Do not lift lid during cooking.
-
Prep veggies and fish Trim green beans. Pat fish dry, remove any remaining bones and cut into even-sized pieces. Season and toss with Indian spices and a drizzle of oil.
-
Cook fish Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on medium-high heat. Cook fish for 2-3 minutes each side, depending on thickness or until cooked through. Rest, covered. Reserve pan.
-
Cook beans Wipe pan clean and return to medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Cook green beans for about 5 minutes, until tender. Add butter and garlic and cook for about 1 minute, until bright green. Season.
-
To finish Cook peas in pot of boiling water for 1-2 minutes, until bright green and tender. Set half of the rice aside (this is leftover) before folding peas through cooked rice.
-
Serve rice topped with beans, fish, a dollop of yoghurt and coriander.
