When I lived in my old neighbourhood, my local takeout used to have an amazing fish curry on the menu. Since I now live too far away to get takeout from there, I have come up with my own alternative. This Curry Fish Stew ticks a lot of boxes. Not only is it super-quick, it’s also super-tasty.
It’s a great midweek recipe as it takes so little time to prepare and cook. 30 minutes from start to table – that’s shorter than the time it used to take my takeout to arrive! For this recipe, I use cod fillets but you could use another similar fish if you prefer. To make the curry, I simply combine onions, chili pepper, pimento peppers, curry powder, cream, garlic, salt and pepper.
It’s really easy to adapt this recipe too – if you prefer more heat, you can add an extra fresh red chili. Sometimes I add some extra vegetables too if I have some handy.
To make Curry Fish Stew, you will need the following ingredients:
In a medium-sized saucepan, heat the oil over medium heat.
Add the onion, green onions, red chili pepper, and pimentos to the saucepan. Cook for about 5 minutes until the onions are tender.
Add the curry powder, and cook for a further 2-5 minutes while stirring.
Add the cream to the onion mix. Stir and simmer until the sauce thickens.
Stir in the cod and cook for 3-5 minutes. When it’s done the fish should until flake easily.Protein
Season the stew to taste with garlic powder, salt, and pepper.
Serve with fluffy basmati rice.
