Cooking Steps

COOK THE RICE
1

In a medium saucepan, add the water (for the rice) and bring to the boil. Add the basmati rice, stir, cover with a lid and reduce the heat to low. Cook for 10 minutes, then remove the pan from the heat and keep covered until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed, 10 minutes. TIP: The rice will finish cooking in its own steam so don't peek!

While the rice is cooking, finely chop the brown onion. Finely grate the ginger. Finely grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). Grate the carrot (unpeeled). Roughly chop the baby spinach leaves. Cut the white fish fillets into 2cm pieces.
