Ingredients

  • 160g Cod Fillet
  • 120g quinoa
  • 80g butternut squash
  • 80g cherry tomatoes
  • 80g onion
  • 150g chopped tomatoes
  • 6g garlic
  • 5g ginger
  • 1 tsp each cumin, turmeric & garam masala
  • fresh coriander

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the butternut squash and cherry tomatoes, then measure out the sauce ingredients.

  2. 2

    Rinse the quinoa and simmer in 2 parts water for 15 minutes until the tails appear, then fluff.

  3. 3

    Season the cod and bake at 200°C for 12-15 minutes until opaque and flaking.

  4. 4

    Soften the onion for 5 minutes, add garlic, ginger and spices for 1 minute, then pour in the tomatoes and simmer for 10 minutes into a thick masala.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the butternut squash and cherry tomatoes for 3-5 minutes until just tender with a little bite.

  6. 6

    Build the plate: quinoa first, then the veg and cod, spooning over any remaining sauce. Finish with the fresh coriander.
