Method

  • Step 1

    Preheat the oven to 180°C/160°C fan/ gas 4 and line an ovenproof dish with baking paper. Scatter the broccoli and pak choi evenly over the base, then arrange the cod fillets on top.

  • Step 2

    Chop half the chilli and ginger and 2 salad onions; put in a blender with the garlic and coriander. Add the coconut water, stock cube, soy and fish sauces, wine and honey; blitz to a smooth broth.

  • Step 3

    Pour the broth over the fish – the fillets should be level but not submerged. Braise in the oven for 30 mins.

  • Step 4

    Meanwhile, cook the rice as per pack instructions. Finely dice the remaining 
red chilli half and cut the final salad onion and remaining ginger into thin strips.

  • Step 5

    Divide the rice between plates or bowls and top with the fish and veg. Scatter over the ginger, chilli and salad onion, and serve immediately.
