Cooking Steps

1

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Cut carrot into bite-sized chunks. Halve any thicker stalks of baby broccoli lengthways. • Place veggies on a lined tray, sprinkle over curry powder and drizzle with olive oil. Season with salt and toss to coat. • Spread out evenly, then roast until tender, 20-25 minutes.

2

• In a medium saucepan, heat half the butter with a dash of olive oil over medium heat. • Add basmati rice, water (for the rice) and a generous pinch of salt, stir, then bring to the boil. Reduce heat to low and cover with a lid. • Cook for 10 minutes, then remove from heat and keep covered until rice is tender and water is absorbed, 10 minutes.

TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

3

• Meanwhile, discard any liquid from gemfish fillet packaging. Slice fish in half crossways to get 1 piece per person. Pat fish dry with paper towel and season on both sides with salt and pepper. • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook fish until just cooked through, 2-3 minutes each side. Transfer to a plate.

TIP: White fish is cooked through when the centre turns from translucent to white.

4

• When the veggies have 5 minutes remaining, wipe out the frying pan, then return to medium high heat with a drizzle of olive oil. • Add mild curry paste (see ingredients), tamarind paste (see ingredients), chickenstyle stock powder, coconut milk, water (for the curry), the brown sugar and remaining butter. Cook, stirring, until reduced, 2-3 minutes.

5

• Add fish, roasted veggies and baby spinach leaves to the curry and gently stir to break up the fish.

6

• Divide basmati rice between bowls. • Top with mild Indian white fish curry to serve. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Aug 2026
  • Flavour: The curry sauce was widely praised for its delicious flavour, with many reviewers calling it a favourite; some found it a touch too sweet or tangy.
  • Ease of prep: Reviewers found this dish straightforward and quick to put together, with several noting it is easy enough for a weeknight.
  • Suggestions: Add extra brown sugar to balance acidity if the tamarind tastes too sharp; some reviewers also found that reducing the water helped thicken the sauce. Add chilli or extra curry paste if you prefer more heat, as the mild flavour suits families but may not satisfy spice lovers. Watch the baby broccoli closely — several reviewers noted it can overcook quickly and recommend checking it or adding it later in the roasting time.
  • Next-day meals: At least one reviewer noted the dish kept well and made a satisfying lunch the following day.
