Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Peel (scrape the skin off with a teaspoon) and roughly chop your ginger
Peel and roughly chop your garlic
Slice half your green chilli[es] into rounds and set aside for garnish
Chop the remaining green chilli[es] roughly
Chop your coriander roughly, including the stems
Pick your mint from their stems, discard the stems
Add the chopped chilli[es] (can't handle the heat? Go easy!), garlic and ginger to a food processor with your ground cumin, garam masala, mango chutney and the juice of half your lemon[s]
Add the mint, chopped coriander and your natural yoghurt with a generous pinch of salt
Blitz until smooth – this is your Hariyali-style marinade
Add your white long grain rice and 225ml [300ml] [450ml] cold water to a pot with a lid 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 cooked, remove from the heat and keep covered until serving
While the rice is cooking, roughly chop your tomato[es]
Wash your lettuce, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and shred it roughly
Combine the chopped tomato[es] and shredded lettuce in a large bowl and set aside for serving – this is your salad
In a separate bowl, combine the juice of the remaining lemon with 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] olive oil and a pinch of salt – this is your zingy lemon dressing
Chop your fish fillet[s] into strips
Season the chopped fish with a generous pinch of salt
Add the seasoned fish to a bowl with the Hariyali-style marinade and give everything a good mix up – this is your marinated fish
Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat
Once hot, add the marinated fish to the pan (along with any remaining hariyali marinade from the bowl!) and cook for 8-9 min or until cooked through, turning once halfway – this is your Hariyali-style fish
Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily
(Doubled your protein? Use 2 pans!)
Serve the Hariyali-style fish with any cooked Hariyali-style marinade from the pan over the cooked rice with the salad to the side
Garnish with the chilli rounds (not a fan of spice? Just add a little!) and drizzle the salad with the zingy lemon dressing
Enjoy!
