Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Cut your basa fillet[s] into 4 pieces per person
Peel and grate (don't chop!) your garlic
Add the basa pieces with the grated garlic, curry powder and soy sauce to a large bowl
Give it a good mix up and set aside to marinate

Add your white long grain rice to a pot with a lid with 225ml [300ml] [450ml] cold water and your ground turmeric and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to very low and cook, covered, for 12-15 min or until all the water has absorbed and the rice is cooked
Once done, remove from the heat and set aside (lid on) to steam until serving – this is your turmeric rice

Cut your cucumber in half lengthways, scrape out the inner seeds with a teaspoon and discard, then chop into bite-sized pieces
Combine your shredded red cabbage and chopped cucumber in a large bowl
Add your white wine vinegar, black sesame seeds and a pinch of salt and sugar and set aside – this is your quick-pickled red cabbage

Add your natural yoghurt and a pinch of salt to a small bowl, then swirl through your mango chutney – this is your mango yoghurt

Strip your mint leaves from their stems and chop them roughly, discard the stems
Chop your coriander finely, including the stalks

Add your cornflour to the marinated basa pieces, and give everything a good mix up so the basa pieces are fully coated in cornflour

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a very generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a high heat
Once hot, add the coated basa pieces and cook for 3-4 min on each side or until browned and cooked through – this is your curried crispy basa
Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily

Add the chopped mint and coriander to the turmeric rice and stir it all together – this is your herby turmeric rice
Serve the curried crispy basa on top of the herby turmeric rice and the quick-pickled red cabbage to the side
Dollop the mango yoghurt over everything
Enjoy!
