Flavorful and nutritious Indian-inspired meal.
Ingredients:
  • Pinch salt
  • 8 chilli-flavoured pappadums
  • 150g (3/4 cup) Basmati rice, rinsed
  • 375ml (1 1/2 cups) warm water
  • 1 brown onion, halved, cut into thin wedges
  • 30.00 ml vegetable or canola oil
  • 3cm piece fresh ginger, peeled, grated
  • 1 large garlic clove, crushed
  • 84.00 gm Rogan Josh curry paste
  • 250ml (1 cup) fish stock
  • 250ml (1 cup) coconut milk
  • 650g thick firm white fish fillets (like deep sea perch or swordfish), cut into 3.5cm pieces
  • 1 red capsicum, deseeded, thinly sliced
  • 70g baby spinach leaves, washed, trimmed
Instructions:
  • Place 4 pappadums on a heatproof microwave-safe plate lined with non-stick baking paper. Microwave on High for 1-2 minutes, or until they expand and crumple. Repeat with the remaining pappadums.
  • In a deep, 3 litre (12 cup) microwave-safe bowl or rice cooker, combine the rice, warm water, and salt. Cover with a lid or double layer of plastic wrap. Microwave on High for 5 minutes, then on Medium for 7 minutes. Let it rest while still covered.
  • In a large microwave-safe dish, mix together onion, oil, ginger, and garlic. Microwave on high for 3 minutes until onion is soft. Stir in curry paste and microwave for another minute.
  • Combine the stock and coconut milk with the curry sauce and heat on High for 2 minutes until just boiling. Add the fish and cook on Medium, stirring gently every 3 minutes, for a total of 9 minutes.
  • Add the capsicum and stir gently. Cook without cover for 3 minutes or until the fish easily flakes with a fork. Then add the spinach and cook without cover on Medium/500 watts/50% power for 1-2 minutes or until the spinach just wilts.
  • Reheat the rice, covered, on Medium-High for 2-3 minutes or until heated through. Enjoy with fish curry and pappadums.
