Method

  • step 1

    Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/ gas 6. Heat the oil in a large non-stick wok and add the onion, ginger, garlic and chilli. Cook briefly over a high heat to mix everything, then cover and leave to cook gently for about 10 mins until the onions are soft. Scoop two spoonfuls of the mixture into a bowl, add the coriander, mint, coconut, lime zest and juice with 1 tbsp water and blitz to a purée with a stick bender.

  • step 2

    Meanwhile, boil the rice for 20 mins, then drain.

  • step 3

    Spread half the coconut mixture over the fish and wrap up in a parcel of foil. Bake for 10 mins.

  • step 4

    Carry on cooking the onions, uncovered this time, until they start to brown. Add the spring greens and stir-fry for a few mins until softened. Add the rice and peas with the ground coriander and cook until the veg is tender. If the mixture starts to stick, add 1 tbsp water. Stir through the remaining coconut mixture, then serve with the fish.

Thanks for your question. You could use the coconut cream that settles at the top of a can of coconut milk. You probably won't need to add the additional water when mixing in step 1 as this will already be quite moist. Feel free to use an alternative fish depending on what you have available. You…

Really enjoyed this. I put the peas in with the rice for the last couple of minutes to make sure they were properly thawed, also used shredded savoy cabbage instead of spring greens as I had already got some in the fridge.

Delicious and very easy to make. A new midweek favourite. All I change is to add some seasoning and squeeze over some lime juice when serving.

Made this as part of the January healthy diet plan and it was fairly nice. Beautiful colours and textures. The pilau was a little bland, and next time I'd probably skip deseeding the chilli, add some lime juice, some more garlic and a healthy dose of salt and pepper.

Also, spring greens are nowhere…
