What each ingredient does
- Cod
- Provides the main protein, which flakes into pieces that absorb the curry paste.
- Curry powder
- Supplies the aroma and spice that define the dish's flavor.
- Rice
- Acts as a neutral starchy base that carries the curried fish.
The step that matters
Add the flaked cod to the curry paste and stir to coat.. Cooked cod is delicate and breaks apart easily. Folding it gently gives an even coat of paste while keeping the flakes intact.
