Cod With Coconut Lime And Lemongrass Curry Sauce Food

ROASTED COD WITH CASHEW COCONUT LIME TOPPING

Steps:

• For the topping: Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
• Toss the cashews and coconut with the oil, curry powder and salt in the baking pan. Bake, stirring once or twice, until the coconut is golden brown, about 5 minutes (be careful, it can burn quickly towards the end). Stir in the lime zest and cool completely. Transfer to a bowl and stir in the cilantro.
• For the fish: Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F and line a baking pan with parchment paper.
• Drizzle the parchment with olive oil and place the fish on top. Sprinkle all over with salt and pepper, turning the fillets to coat them with the oil. Sprinkle the top of the fish with the coriander and curry powder, then roast until the cod is just cooked through and flakes apart easily, 12 to 15 minutes.
• Serve the fish with the cashew coconut topping and lime wedges on the side.

COD WITH COCONUT, LIME, AND LEMONGRASS CURRY SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F.
• To make the broth, melt the butter in a small sauté pan or wok over medium heat. Add the shallots, garlic, lemongrass, ginger, kaffir lime leaves and curry and sweat until tender and with no color, about 5 to 6 minutes. Add the chicken stock and bring to a boil. Lower the heat simmer for 15 minutes. Add the coconut milk and cilantro, and simmer for 5 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Strain through a fine chinois and set aside.
• Divide the 2 tablespoons of canola oil between the skillets. Place over high heat until oil is just smoking. Season the cod on both sides with salt and pepper. Put 2 pieces of cod in each skillet and sauté until golden brown and crusted on the bottom, about 2 1/2 minutes. Turn and sear on the other side for 30 seconds. Put the pans in the oven and roast until a metal skewer can be easily inserted into the fish and, when left in the fish for 5 seconds, feels hot when touched to your lip, about 6 to 7 minutes.
• In a large pot, heat 4 quarts of water, the butter, and the kosher salt. Bring to a boil over high heat. Add the bok choy and cook until crisp tender, about 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and set aside on a sheet pan in the refrigerator to cool quickly so they retain their bright green color.
• To serve, reheat the sauce and finish with the lime juice. In each of 4 bowls, place a piece of cod. Place 3 to 4 pieces of bok choy around the cod. Pour the sauce over the cod and serve immediately.

COCONUT COD

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a bowl or shallow dish, whisk the coconut milk, lime juice, olive oil, a nice pinch of salt and a few grinds of pepper. Reserve 1 cup of the marinade. Add the fish to the bowl with the marinade and refrigerate for 20 minutes.
• Remove the cod from the refrigerator. Place the cod in a 9 by 11-inch baking dish, discarding the marinade in the bowl. Place a slice of jalapeno over the top of each piece. Place in the oven and bake for 12 to 14 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the sauce. Pour the reserved 1 cup marinade in a small saucepan over medium heat and simmer until reduced and slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Spoon some on the plate before placing the cod down on top. Serve warm.
