michelleparkinphotography developed this recipe for @pesto_princess using our hake and their harissa paste. Harissa paste is made from chillies and red peppers, some garlic, oil and spices all blended to a paste that you can basically add to any dish. The Pesto Princess version is not mind-blowingly hot and I use it all the time.

Ingredients

  • 2 cups coconut cream
  • Tbsp lime juice
  • ½ Tbsp fish sauce
  • 1 Tbsp honey
  • 1 cube or sachet fish stock concentrate
  • 2 Tbsp Pesto Princess Harissa Paste
  • 2 hake fillets approximately 375 g each
  • generous handful of kale washed and finely chopped
  • ½ tsp fresh chilli chopped
  • fresh coriander to serve
  • 4 lime wedges to serve
  • brown rice, couscous or grain of your choice

Instructions

  • In a large pan, over low heat, combine the coconut cream, lime juice, fish sauce, honey, fish stock and Pesto Princess Harissa Paste. Gently stir and cook until well combined – about five to seven minutes.
  • Reduce the heat to low and add the fish fillets. Cover the pan and simmer gently for ten to twelve minutes or longer, depending on the thickness of the fillets.
  • Gently remove the cooked fish and keep warm.
  • Add the chopped kale and chilli to the sauce, giving everything a stir to combine.
  • Plate up with some brown rice, couscous or grain of your choice. Place the fish on top and drizzle over the sauce. Top with fresh coriander and a slice of lime.
