I love white fish. It is my main source of animal protein.

The other day while grocery shopping I picked up some haddock fillets and was wondering how to cook them. I experimented with coconut milk and the outcome was finger licking good. So here is the recipe for you!

Note: you can substitute haddock with any other white fish like halibut or tilapia.

This a gluten and dairy free recipe.
 

Ingredients:

• 4 medium sized haddock/ halibut/ tilapia fillets (each the size of a deck of cards)
• 1.5 cup coconut milk
• 1 medium onion (finely chopped)
• 4 medium dried red chillies (adjust if you want less heat)
• 2 tsp coconut oil
• 1/4 tsp mustard seeds
• 1″ ginger root grated
• 1/4 tsp turmeric powder
• 1/2 tsp corinader powder
• salt to taste

Directions:

• Wash, drain and paper dry the fish fillets. Then chop them into smaller pieces to your liking
• Preheat a pan and add the coconut oil to warm it up
• Add the mustard seeds and let them crackle
• Throw in the chopped onion, and suate till lightly brown.
• Add the ginger root and saute for few more seconds
• Add the rest of the spices and fish pieces and saute for 1 minute
• Stir in the coconut milk and bring to boil.
• Stir occasionally to make sure the fish pieces don’t stick to the pan. Cook until the fish is spft and tender/ easily flaky.
• Garnish with fresh cilantro leaves and enjot hot!
