Ingredients

  • 160g Cod Fillet
  • 120g quinoa
  • 80g green beans
  • 80g spinach
  • 25g curry paste
  • 60g greek yoghurt
  • 10g lemon juice
  • fresh coriander & a pinch of garam masala

Method

  1. 1

    Prep everything first: wash and trim the green beans and spinach, 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

    Combine the tikka paste, yoghurt and lemon juice. Coat the protein and leave for at least 10 minutes (or overnight) before cooking.

  5. 5

    Meanwhile, steam or stir-fry the green beans and spinach 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 & a pinch of garam masala.
