Ethiopian-Style Basa Asa Wat With Cauliflower Rice

Add your white long grain rice and cauliflower rice to a pot with a lid with 110ml [175ml] [225ml] cold water 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

Peel and finely dice your brown onion[s]

Top, tail and chop your courgette[s] in half lengthways, then slice finely

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of olive oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the sliced courgette and diced onion and cook for 3-4 min or until softened and starting to brown

Once softened, add your tomato paste and ground turmeric to the pan with the chopped garlic and berbere seasoning and cook for 1-2 min or until fragrant

Once fragrant, add your chopped tomatoes and your vegetable stock mix with 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] sugar and a pinch of salt and pepper

Give everything a good mix up and cook for 2-3 min or until the sauce has slightly thickened

Meanwhile, chop your fish fillet[s] into large, bite-sized pieces

Once the sauce has slightly thickened, add the chopped fish to the pan and bring to the boil over a high heat

Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium and cook for 4-5 min further or until the fish is cooked through – this is your fish asa wat

Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily

Slice your green chilli[es] finely
