Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Rinse your brown rice, add it to a pot with plenty of cold water and bring to the boil over a high heat
Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 20-25 min or until it's tender with a slight bite
Once cooked, drain, return it to the pot and keep covered until serving
Cut your orange[s] in half, then cut half your orange[s] into 1 orange wedge per person
Strip your coriander leaves from their stalks and chop the stalks finely, then roughly chop the leaves and keep separate
Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic
Add the juice of the remaining orange halves (save the wedges for garnish!) to a small bowl with your ground cumin, dried oregano, chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), chopped coriander stalks, cider vinegar and half the chopped garlic (you'll use the rest later!)
Add a drizzle of olive oil and a very generous pinch of salt and pepper
Mix until fully combined – this is your mojo-style marinade
Peel and finely slice your red onion[s]
Deseed your sweet pointed pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and cut into thin strips
Add the sliced red onion and sliced pepper to one side of a baking tray (or two!) with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt, and give everything a good mix up
Cut a large piece of tin foil and place your hake fillet[s] in the centre of the foil
Pour the mojo-style marinade over the hake, then scrunch the edges of the foil together around the fish to form a tightly sealed parcel
Tip: Cooking for 3 or more? Make 2 separate parcels!
Add the foil parcel[s] to the other side of the baking tray[s]
Put the tray[s] in the oven for 15 min or until the fish is cooked through and the onion has softened – this is your Cuban-style mojo hake & roast veg
Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily
Meanwhile, drain and rinse your black beans, then pat dry with kitchen paper
Add the drained black beans to the cooked rice with half the chopped coriander leaves (save the rest for garnish!), the remaining chopped garlic and a generous pinch of salt
Mix it all together and cook over a medium-low heat for 1-2 min or until warmed through – this is your black bean & coriander rice
Serve the black bean & coriander rice and roast veg topped with the Cuban-style mojo hake
Drizzle the remaining cooking juices from the foil parcel[s] over the fish
Garnish with an orange wedge and the remaining chopped coriander leaves
Enjoy!
