Ingredients
- 500 g Cod fillets
- 300 g Basmati rice
- 3 große Large onions
- 60 ml Vegetable oil
- 1 TL Cumin powder
- 0.5 TL Coriander powder
- 0.25 TL Turmeric powder
- 1 Prise Cinnamon
- 0.5 Bund Fresh parsley
- 30 g Pine nuts
- 1 Lemon
- Nach Geschmack Salt and black pepper
- 700 ml Fish stock or vegetable broth
Instructions
- Peel and thinly slice the onions. Heat 30 ml of vegetable oil in a large pot and caramelize the onions over medium heat until golden brown, stirring regularly to prevent burning.
- Remove about half of the caramelized onions from the pot and set aside. Wash the rice thoroughly and add it to the remaining onions in the pot.
- Add cumin, coriander, turmeric, cinnamon, salt, and pepper to the rice and stir well. Pour in the fish stock or vegetable broth.
- Bring the rice to a boil, then reduce the heat, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the liquid is fully absorbed and the rice is cooked.
- While the rice is cooking, season the fish fillets with salt and pepper. In a separate pan, heat the remaining vegetable oil and pan-fry the fish fillets over medium-high heat for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and cooked through.
- In a small dry pan, toast the pine nuts until golden brown, being careful as they burn quickly. Roughly chop the fresh parsley.
- Arrange the cooked rice on a serving platter. Top with the pan-fried fish fillets. Garnish with the reserved caramelized onions, toasted pine nuts, and fresh parsley. Serve with lemon wedges.
