Here's a good fish dinner:
fillets of tilapia
scallions -cut into a couple of pieces
fresh ginger -grated
1 garlic clove -minced
sesame oil
olive oil
soy sauce
Using a large fry pan/skillet with lid, add a drop of sesame oil and olive oil. When hot, add garlic, ginger and scallions.
When scallions look limp, add the filets of tilapia, throw in a splash of soy sauce and put the lid on.
Cook maybe 5 minutes, turn fish over and let it cook another 5 minutes.
When cooked, should be flaky, it is very white and moist.
That is it.
It sort of poaches the fish, and the flavors are wonderful.
I made a potato salad with new potatoes and pesto and green beans, but coconut rice would be fabulous with it.
Coconut rice
1 can Lite coconut milk
1 cup Jasmine rice
water
Into a pot, add 2 cups coconut milk with about 1/3 cup water (add more if it dries out before rice is tender- coconut milk cooks off faster than water)
add 1 cup rice.
Bring to a boil, lower heat and cook 20 minutes.
Bon Appetit, everyone!
