Equipment

• 1 large saute pan with high sides and tight fitting lid
• 1 good chef's knife

Ingredients

  

• 1 lb sea bass cut into two fillets
• 1 cup white rice cooked per package directions
(SCD/Keto: mixed greens)
• Na’an bread heated for 20 seconds in the microwave before serving – SCD/kept: omit
• 1 onion diced
• 3 cloves garlic minced
• 1 medium carrot diced
• 1 red pepper diced
• 1/2 head cauliflower diced
• 1/2 cup green beans trimmed and chopped into 1/2 inch pieces
• 2-3 large tomatoes diced – roughly 3 cups with juices
• 1/2 cup raisins keto: omit
• 1/2 cup kalamata olives
• 1 can coconut milk
• 1 Tbsp curry paste
• 1 tsp cumin
• salt and pepper
• 1/4 cup olive oil

Garnish

• 1 Tbsp fresh cilantro minced
• 2 Tbsp raw cashews chopped
• 1 Tbsp green onions chopped

Instructions

 

• Start by making your rice according to package directions.
• While that’s cooking, saute your onions and garlic in a large, high sided saute pan over medium-high heat in 1/4 cup olive oil, salt and pepper. Let that cook for about three minutes, until it becomes translucent. Then, add the rest of your carrot, red pepper, cauliflower, and green beans, along with your spices, and let those cook for about 6-7 minutes, until the cauliflower becomes tender.
• Finally, add your tomatoes. Let those stew until they begin to break down – about 3-4 minutes. Then, stir in your coconut milk, olives and raisins
• Once your sauce begins to boil, carefully place your sea bass fillets evenly in the pan, so they are not overlapping. Use a utensil to make sure they are submerged in the liquid, and then cover the pan with the lid. Let cook – boiling – for about 15-18 minutes, until the fish is cooked through.
• To plate, place a bed of rice on the plate. Then, spoon a heaping portion of the veggies atop the rice, and then place the sea bass fillet on top of the veggies. Then, liberally ladle the sauce over everything. Garnish with fresh cilantro, chopped cashews, and green onions.
• Serve with hot na’an bread.

OK WOW! This meal was so good we were literally licking our plates!

We need to start with this curry because it is life changing! ALL those flavors of ginger and garlic, and curry and then rounded out by this gorgeous, thick coconut milk?! YES PLEASE!

Next: the fish. Can we just talk about how delicious it is, cooked by soaking in that liquid gold broth!? It takes on all those magnificent flavors and just becomes so tender it melts in your mouth!

Another highlight were the raisins! They also plumped up as they were cooking, and absorbed all those delicious flavors too! They were this little burst of intense sweetness — I loved it.

Other nice little additions were the olives – they gave a great salty bite, as well as the cilantro and cashews — they chimed in with a fresh and crunchy note.

Finally, it was just a gorgeous dish. From the presentation to the bright colors on the plate, to the rich red color of the curry — everything about this meal was a 10/10!
