Time 30m

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 stalks lemongrass
1 2-inch piece of ginger
1 shallot
4 cloves garlic, minced
1 1/2 teaspoons ground turmeric
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 pounds swordfish (2?3 steaks), or catfish, monkfish, or other firm white fish
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
1 teaspoon brown sugar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
1 1/4 cups coconut milk
3 cups steamed white rice
Juice of ½ a lime or lemon
Fresh cilantro leaves
Fresh mint leaves

Steps:

  • Curry paste: Peel back the woody outer layers of the lemongrass. Trim the root ends, then cut off 2 inches of the tender interior to use. Thinly slice and put in mortar. Peel and mince the ginger and shallot. Set aside.
  • Gently pound the lemongrass with the pestle for about 1 minute to break it down. Add shallot, ginger, and garlic, pounding about 30 seconds after each addition. By now, you should have a chunky paste. Add the turmeric and chili powders and continue pounding to create a thick, aromatic paste, 2 minutes. Set aside.
  • Fish: Cut the skin from the swordfish and slice into large chunks, trimming away any visible blood lines. Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat; add fish in an even layer and cook until lightly brown, 2-3 minutes. Flip and brown the other side, tilting the skillet around to distribute the hot oil.
  • Immediately after flipping the fish, add curry paste to the skillet, distributing evenly. Let paste and fish cook undisturbed, 1-2 minutes. Add brown sugar, fish sauce, and coconut milk to the skillet. Tilt the skillet around again, then simmer over medium-high heat until the fish is cooked through and the sauce has reduced and thickened, 5-8 minutes. Stir occasionally so the fish doesn't stick.
  • Assembly: Make a bed of hot rice in a serving bowl; spoon the fish and plenty of sauce onto the rice. Garnish with a squeeze of lemon or lime and a sprinkle of fresh cilantro leaves and mint before serving.

2 teaspoons ground turmeric
One 3-centimetre (1 1/4-inch) piece of ginger, peeled and grated
1 teaspoon superfine sugar
2 tablespoons fish sauce
500 grams (1 pound 2 ounces) sustainable cod loin, cut into chunks
100 grams (3 1/2 ounces) vermicelli rice noodles
60 milliliters (1/4 cup) sunflower oil
1 red chile, finely chopped
Large handful of dill fronds
Large handful of cilantro leaves
Bunch of spring onions, shredded
2 to 3 tablespoons unsalted roasted peanuts, chopped

Steps:

  • Mix the turmeric with the ginger, sugar and fish sauce in a shallow dish to make a quick marinade. Toss the fish in the marinade and set aside for 5 to 10 minutes while you prepare the noodles.
  • Soak the noodles in boiling water for 10 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, heat the oil in a wok or frying pan and fry the fish over a high heat for 3 to 4 minutes until just cooked. Turn the fish carefully so it doesn't break. Remove from the heat and add the chile, herbs and spring onions and lightly toss together.
  • Drain the noodles and divide between four bowls. Add the chile-herb fish pieces, scatter with the peanuts and serve.

CHICKEN AND RICE SOUP WITH GINGER AND TURMERIC



Chicken and Rice Soup With Ginger and Turmeric image

Many countries have some form of creamy rice porridge in their culinary canon, such as Chinese congee, Filipino lugaw or arroz caldo and Korean juk, to name just a few. Seasonings vary, but all call for simmering a little bit of rice with a lot of liquid until the grains tenderize and break down to create a deeply comforting soup. Ideal for those harboring colds or seeking comfort, this brothy chicken-and-rice soup begins with poaching an entire chicken, which takes time, but guarantees tender meat. The rendered fat creates a rich, flavorful broth, while coriander and turmeric add earthy notes. Fresh cilantro, red chile and ginger brighten the dish.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons neutral oil, such as canola or vegetable oil
5 scallions, thinly sliced crosswise (about 3/4 cup), plus 1 to 2 scallions, thinly sliced on an angle, for garnish
5 garlic cloves, finely chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh ginger (from one 3-inch piece), plus extra julienned ginger, for garnish
4 teaspoons ground coriander
1 tablespoon ground turmeric
Kosher salt and black pepper
1 1/2 cups short-grain brown rice or Arborio rice (10 ounces)
3 quarts chicken stock
3 bunches baby bok choy (about 1 pound)
1 (3- to 4-pound) chicken, wings and legs removed and reserved (this will help the chicken fit better in the pot)
Sliced fresh red chile and chopped cilantro, for serving

Steps:

  • In a large pot, combine the oil with 3/4 cup scallions, the garlic, finely chopped ginger, coriander and turmeric. Season with salt and pepper, and cook over medium-low, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 5 minutes.
  • Add the rice and stir until coated. Add the chicken stock and 2 teaspoons salt, and bring to a boil over high. Meanwhile, prepare the bok choy: Trim and discard the ends, then halve crosswise, separating the leafy bok choy tops from the heftier stems. Cut the stems crosswise into 1/2-inch pieces. Set aside.
  • Once the stock comes to a boil, reduce the heat to medium-low and carefully add the whole chicken, then the wings and legs, adding the meat in a single layer. (If the chicken isn't fully submerged, add enough water until the meat is fully covered.) Cover the pot with a lid, leaving the lid cracked open about 1 inch, and simmer over medium-low until the chicken is cooked through, about 20 to 25 minutes. (Reduce the heat to low if necessary. You want to keep it at a low simmer to ensure the chicken stays tender.) Transfer the chicken to a large bowl.
  • Continue to cook the soup over medium, uncovered, until the rice is tender and the liquid starts to thicken, 20 to 25 minutes. While the rice continues to cook, shred the chicken: Once cool, discard the chicken skin and tear the meat into bite-size pieces, discarding the bones. (You should have about 3 packed cups of shredded meat.)
  • Stir the bok choy stems and shredded chicken into the soup, and simmer just until stems are slightly softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Stir in the leafy bok choy tops, and season to taste with salt.
  • Divide among bowls and serve with bowls of chile, cilantro, sliced scallions and julienned ginger, to garnish.
