INSTRUCTIONS
1. Saute the onions in a small amount of oil till they start to soften.
Add the garlic and cook for a few minutes, and then add the mushrooms and
cook for a few minutes more, till they lose their raw look.
2. Meanwhile, put a few tablespoons of flour and the pepper into a plastic
bag and shake the fish cubes in the bag (don't forget to close the bag!)
Remove the fish from the bag, shaking off any excess flour.
3. When the vegetables are cooked to your liking, remove them from the pan
and set them aside. You could drain them on a paper towel to remove a bit
of the oil, but it's not necessary.
4. Add a little more oil to the pan, and heat it for a moment. Drop the
fish pieces in the oil, and saute them till them start to turn opaque. Add
the vegetables, the cherry tomatoes & the curry powder, and stir to mix
them in. Pour in the white wine (or other liquid of your choice) and cook
down till most of the liquid has evaporated. Serve over rice.
Author's Notes: This is a recipe I made up the other night, when I didn't
feel like going out to the store. It's not exactly haute cuisine, but it
tasted OK, and used common ingredients. It'squick to prepare, and doesn't
taste very fishy since the dominant flavor is the curry powder. (All
measurements are approximate. This made more than enough for 2 people).
The thing about this sort of recipe is that you can vary it in countless
ways ~- add some bell peppers if you want, or add different spices. Use soy
sauce and call it Oriental. Add a few hot chilli peppers for more punch.
Difficulty : easy. Precision
: measure ingredients.
