Crispy-skinned yellowtail sits atop onion and bell pepper-loaded jasmine rice, capturing all the warmth and complexity of Indian spice. A rich, creamy Madras curry is ladled generously over the fish, while a fresh tomato salsa cools the palate with every bite. A flavour memory in the making, Chef!

  1. SAVOURY RICE

    Boil the kettle. Place a pot over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced carrots and ½ the diced Onion until browned and soft, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). Mix through the rice and pour in 150ml [300ml]|#7DA0D7 of water. Cover and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat and simmer until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from the heat and steam, 8-10 minutes. Fluff with a fork and cover.

  2. TANGY TOMATOES

    In a bowl, toss together the diced tomato, ½ the chopped coriander, the lemon juice, a sweetener (to taste), a drizzle of olive oil, and seasoning. Set aside.

  3. MADRAS SAUCE

    Dilute the stock with 30ml [60ml]|#7DA0D7 of boiling water. Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the remaining diced Onion until golden, 4-5 minutes (shifting occasionally). In the final 1-2 minutes, mix through the curry powder (to taste). Stir in the diluted stock and the vinegar & jam mixture, and simmer, 1-2 minutes (stirring occasionally). Remove from the heat, mix through the crème fraîche, and season. Just before serving, loosen with a splash of milk (optional) or water if the sauce is too thick.

  4. YUMMY YELLOWTAIL

    Place a clean pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). Pat the yellowtail dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the yellowtail, skin-side down, until crispy, 3-4 minutes. Flip and fry the other side until cooked through, 3-4 minutes. Remove from the pan and season.

  5. DIVE IN
