Ingredients:

  • 1 lb white fish fillets (such as cod or halibut)
  • 1 can coconut milk (full-fat)
  • 2 cups fish or vegetable broth
  • 1 small onion (diced)
  • 2 cloves garlic (minced)

  • 1 cup cherry tomatoes (halved)
  • Juice of 2 limes
  • 2 tbsp olive oil
  • Fresh cilantro for garnish
  • Salt and pepper to taste

Instructions:

  1. Sauté the Aromatics:
    Heat olive oil in a large pot over medium heat. Add onion, garlic, ginger, and turmeric, sautéing until fragrant (about 3 minutes).

    Pour in the coconut milk and broth, stirring to combine. Bring to a gentle simmer.

    Gently place the fish fillets into the soup. Cover and simmer for 8-10 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily.

  5. Finish with Lime:
    Remove the pot from heat and stir in lime juice.

Tips:

  • Shopping Tip: Choose firm, fresh white fish with a mild aroma for the best results.
  • Cooking Tip: Be careful not to overcook the fish to maintain its tender texture.
