Description
A creamy and flavorful fish korma recipe, a healthy take on the classic dish. This recipe uses cod fillets and a blend of aromatic spices for a delicious and nourishing meal.
Ingredients
Scale
- 600g cod fillets, cut into large chunks
- 1 tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1-inch ginger, grated
- 1 tsp ground turmeric
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- 1/2 tsp garam masala
- 1/4 tsp chili powder (adjust to taste)
- 400ml light coconut milk
- 100g low-fat Greek yogurt
- 1 tbsp almond flour
- Salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
- Fresh cilantro, chopped, for garnish
Instructions
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the chopped onion and cook until softened, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the minced garlic and grated ginger to the pan. Cook for another 2 minutes until fragrant.
- Stir in the ground turmeric, cumin, coriander, garam masala, and chili powder. Cook for 1 minute, stirring constantly, until the spices are aromatic.
- Pour in the light coconut milk and bring to a gentle simmer.
- In a small bowl, whisk together the low-fat Greek yogurt and almond flour until smooth. Gradually stir this mixture into the simmering sauce. This will help thicken the korma.
- Gently add the cod chunks to the sauce. Ensure the fish is submerged.
- Cover the pan and cook for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily. Be careful not to overcook the fish.
- Season with salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste.
- Garnish with fresh chopped cilantro before serving.
Notes
- Serve this healthy fish korma with brown rice or quinoa for a complete meal.
- You can adjust the level of chili powder to your preference.
- For a richer flavor, you can lightly toast the almond flour before adding it to the yogurt.
- Other firm white fish like haddock or pollock can be used instead of cod.
