Thai-Inspired Lime Cod & Coconut Rice

Zubereitung

1. 1

   Prep the ingredients

   On a cutting board, cut the cod into four portions, finely grate the ginger, mince the garlic, juice the limes, and thinly slice the scallion.

   Tipp: Pat the cod dry before cooking so the sauce clings to it.

2. 2

   Cook the rice

   In a medium saucepan, combine the jasmine rice with 600 ml water and bring to a boil over high heat; cover, reduce to low, and cook.

   16 Min.
3. 3

   Warm the aromatics

   Heat the canola oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Add the ginger and garlic and stir constantly.

   3 Min.

   Tipp: Garlic can burn quickly, so have the coconut milk ready to add.

4. 4

   Simmer the cod

   Pour the coconut milk, fish sauce, and lime juice into the skillet over medium-low heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Add the cod and spoon sauce over it.

   9 Min.

   Tipp: Keep the sauce at a gentle simmer; boiling can break the fish into small pieces.

5. 5

   Taste and serve

   Taste the sauce and adjust salt and black pepper. Spoon the cod and sauce over the rice, then scatter the sliced scallion over the bowls.

   Tipp: Bring extra lime to the table for anyone who likes a sharper finish.
