Roasted Bay Scented Cod Food

CURRY-TOPPED BLACK COD WITH CUMIN-SCENTED WARM SAVOY SLAW

Steps:

• Heat the broiler and place the rack in the upper third of the oven.
• Mix the mayonnaise with the curry powder blend in a small bowl. Place the fish on a baking sheet and sprinkle with salt and pepper or seafood seasoning if using. Slather the fish evenly with the curry mayonnaise. Place under broiler until the fish is firm and the top is very brown, 10 to 12 minutes. (Keep an eye on the fish while broiling and move to a lower rack in the oven if it's starting to brown before it's cooked through.) Serve the broiled fish with lime wedges, Cumin-Scented Warm Savoy Slaw and Coconut-Ginger Rice with Chickpeas and Chiles.
• Heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat in a large skillet. Add the cumin seeds and stir, 1 minute. Add the cabbage and wilt. Finish the slaw with the lime juice and season with salt.
• Heat the butter in a saucepot over medium heat. Add the chiles, ginger and whites of the scallions and stir 2 minutes. Add the chicken stock, rice, coconut and lime zest. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to a simmer and cover. Cook 17 to 18 minutes. Add in the chickpeas in the last 5 minutes of cooking. Finish the rice by stirring in the lime juice, the greens of the scallions and cilantro.

ROASTED COD AND TOMATOES WITH BASIL AND WHITE WINE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400°F
• In a baking dish large enough to eventually accomodate the cod fillets, place the tomatoes in a single layer. Drizzle 1/2 of the olive oil over the tomatoes and sprinkle with kosher salt. Roast the tomatoes until they are very soft, about 15 to 20 minutes.
• Remove the tomatoes from the oven and decrease temperature to 350°F Place tomatoes in a small bowl, add the garlic and basil, toss to combine well and set aside.
• Season the cod fillets with salt and pepper and drizzle remaining olive oil over the fillets. Place the cod in the baking dish the tomatoes were roasted in and pour wine and tomato mixture over the fish. Cover the dish with foil and bake the fish until just cooked through, about 12 to 15 minutes depending on the thickness of the fish. Serve immediately.
