Recipe Ingredients: 

  • 150g (5 1/4oz) basmati rice
  • 1 tsp garlic salt
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 2 tsp ground cumin
  • 4 basa fillets, halved
  • 2 tbsp kisan sunflower cooking oil
  • 1 x 400g can black-eyed beans, drained and rinsed
  • 200g (7oz) tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/4 red onion, very finely chopped
  • 1/2 x 30g pack flat-leaf parsley, chopped, plus extra to garnish
  • 2 Little Gem lettuces, leaves torn
  • 1 x 150ml pot soured cream (optional)
  • lime wedges, to serve

Recipe Method: 

    • In a pan, cover the rice with water and add a pinch of salt. Cover with a lid, bring to a simmer and cook for 10 minutes.
    • Meanwhile, mix the garlic salt, paprika and cumin in a small bowl. Lay out the fish on a tray, sprinkle the spice mix over both sides and rub in.
    • In a nonstick frying pan set over a medium heat, add 1 tbsp oil and cook half the fillets for 3-4 minutes each side. Remove and keep warm while you repeat with the remaining fillets and oil.
    • Drain the rice well and tip back into the pan. Mix in the beans and gently warm them through over a low heat.
    • Make a salsa by mixing the tomatoes, onion and parsley. Season to taste.
    • Slice the fish, then divide the sliced fish and the rice between 4 bowls. Serve with a handful of lettuce leaves and a dollop of soured cream, if using. Spoon over the salsa and garnish with parsley leaves and lime wedges for squeezing over.
