Ingredients

  • Yogurt: yogurt, coriander leaves and mango chutney, to serve
  • Vegetable Oil: 2 tbsp vegetable oil
  • Garlic Clove: 1 garlic clove, chopped
  • Ground Cumin: 1 tsp ground cumin
  • New Potato: 500g new potatoes, larger ones halved
  • Trout: 4 thick trout fillets
  • Garam Masala: 1 tsp garam masala (or ground coriander)
  • Curry Paste: 1 tbsp tandoori curry paste
  • Frozen Peas: 320g frozen peas
  • Ground Turmeric: 1/2 tsp ground turmeric

Directions

  1. Coat the trout in the curry paste. Put the potatoes in a large pan of cold salted water, bring to the boil and cook for 15-20 mins until tender but still retaining their shape. Drain and leave to steam-dry.
  2. Heat the grill. Put the trout fillets on a baking tray lined with foil and cook until tender, about 6-8 mins.
  3. Meanwhile, heat the oil in a large frying pan and add the garlic and spices. Cook for a few mins until fragrant, then tip in the potatoes. Fry for 3 mins until crisp at the edges, then throw in the frozen peas. Cook for 2-3 mins more until warmed through. Season well and serve with the trout, coriander sprinkled over, and yogurt and chutney on the side.
