Super quick and easy to make for a light supper or have it with crushed new potatoes or mash for a more substantial meal
4 x 150g cod loin (skinless)
4 tsp curry powder
olive oil
2 leeks, halved and cut into long slices to make “noodles”
50g butter
50ml stock (chicken or vegetable)
100ml double cream
Season the fish with salt and pepper on both sides then sprinkle each piece with curry powder on top and bottom.
Add the olive oil to a large frying pan, when hot add the cod and cook for 3 minutes. Turn the cod over and cook for another 3 minutes. Tuck the leeks all around the pan, top with pieces of the butter. Check that the fish is cooked – it should be flakey in the middle and remove to a warm plate while you finish the leeks.
Turn the heat to high, add the stock to the leeks with a generous pinch of salt and pepper, let them continue to cook for a couple of minutes then add the cream, let it bubble and thicken slightly.
Divide the leek noodles between 4 plates and top with the fish. Serve as it is or with mash or crushed new potatoes.
