Proudly supported by

This dish is so quick and easy, once you’ve got everything ready to go into the pot, you can get yourself ready and not have to worry about slaving away in the kitchen.

Ingredients

700g skinless, boneless cod fillets, cut into large chunks

600ml fish or vegetable stock pinch of saffron strands

1 tbsp olive oil

1 onion, finely chopped

3 garlic cloves, finely chopped

1 tbsp ground cumin

1 tbsp ground coriander

1 /2 cinnamon stick

1 tbsp tomato purée

3 plum tomatoes, quartered

2 tbsp ground almonds

finely grated zest 1 lemon

small bunch fresh coriander, chopped

handful toasted flaked almonds

Method

  1. Season the fish chunks and set aside. Heat the stock in a pan until simmering, then add the saffron. Remove from the heat and let it steep for a few mins. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a flameproof casserole or heavy-based pan over a medium heat, add the onion and garlic, and cook for 4-5 mins to soften.

  2. Stir in the cumin, coriander, cinnamon stick and tomato purée, and cook for a few mins, just until the mixture begins to stick to the base of the pan. Add the tomatoes and cook for 2-3 mins until they begin to soften.

  3. Sprinkle in the ground almonds and lemon zest, then stir in the stock. Add the cod, making sure it is immersed in the sauce. Bring to a simmer and cook, uncovered, for 10-12 mins.

  4. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Stir in the coriander, then scatter over the flaked almonds and serve.
