Five Spice Cod With Chilli Soy Dressing Recipes

PAN FRIED COD WITH ASIAN DRESSING

Steps:

• To make the dressing, boil the soy sauce, vinegar and 5 spice powder together.
• Remove from the heat, mix in the sesame oil and season with salt and pepper.
• Set aside.
• Mix the spring onions with the chilli.
• Lightly coat the fish fillets with seasoned flour.
• Heat the knob of butter in a fry pan and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side (depending on thickness) until cooked.
• Reheat the dressing and add the onions and chilli-cook for 1-2 minutes more.
• Serve the fish with the dressing spooned over.

CHILI-ROASTED COD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 350 degrees F. Lightly coat a roasting pan with vegetable cooking spray.
• Arrange the cod fillets skin-side down. Sprinkle with the chili powder, oregano, and salt. Roast 5 to 7 minutes or until the cod is just opaque and flakes when tested with a fork.
• Meanwhile, melt the butter in a small skillet over medium-low heat. Cook, swirling constantly, just until the butter begins to brown. Add the cumin and lime juice and continue to cook, swirling 1 minute longer.
• Remove the cod from the oven. Set aside half the cod for Day 3. Drizzle the cumin-lime butter over the remaining cod and serve with the potatoes and peas.
• Place sweet potatoes in a large saucepan and cover with salted water. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer 10 to 12 minutes or until fork-tender. Drain. Add the zest, juice, butter and a dash of salt.
• Beat with an electric mixer until the potatoes are light and fluffy.
• Place sugar snap peas in a steamer and steam until tender but still crisp, about 4 minutes. Toss with mint, season, and serve.

BLACK COD FILLETS POACHED IN FIVE-SPICE BROTH WITH BABY BOK CHOY AND UDON

Steps:

• 1. Pat the fillets dry and sprinkle all over with salt and pepper.
• 2. In a small bowl, whisk together the chicken broth, sherry, soy sauce, sugar, five-spice powder, and sesame oil. Set aside.
• 3. Heat a 12-in/30.5-cm skillet with a lid over medium-high heat and add the vegetable oil. When the oil shimmers, add the bok choy stems, carrot, and ginger and sauté until the bok choy turns bright green and the ginger is fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the broth mixture and bring to a simmer. Add the noodles and give them a stir to keep them from sticking. When the broth returns to a simmer, top the noodles and veggies with the fish, bok choy leaves, and green onion. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and simmer until the noodles and fish are tender and cooked through, about 4 minutes. Taste and add more soy sauce or pepper if the mix needs it.
• 4. Divide the noodles and fish between two warmed shallow bowls and ladle the broth and vegetables over. Garnish with the cilantro and sesame seeds and serve hot.

FIVE SPICE COD WITH CHILLI SOY DRESSING

Steps:

• Season the cod chunks with the Chinese 5 spice powder, 2 cloves of minced garlic and a pinch of salt and pepper. Rub this into the fish, and then toss the cod in the corn flour.
• In a separate bowl combine the rice wine vinegar, soy sauce, spring onion and chilli, and set aside.
• In a large sauce pan, heat 1 teaspoon of coconut oil on a medium heat. Once hot add the cod and cook for 3 to 4 minutes each side until cooked through out, and the outside turns slightly golden.
• While this is cooking, in a separate pan, heat 1 teaspoon of coconut oil on a medium to high gas and add the mange tout with 1 clove of mince garlic. Season the greens a little with salt and pepper, then cook for 4 minutes, giving it a stir every so often to ensure the flavours spread evenly and the mange tout remains firm but tender.
• Once ready, serve the cod chunks on top of the mange tout and drizzle the soy dressing over the top.
