Ingredients

  • 4 cod fillets
  • grated zest of a lemon
  • 2 cm piece ginger, peeled and finely grated
  • 2 cloves garlic, crushed
  • 1 green chilli, finely chopped
  • ½ tsp turmeric
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • ½ tsp cumin seeds
  • 2 cardamom pods, seeds removed and crushed
  • 30g breadcrumbs
  • handful of dill, chopped
  • handful of coriander leaves, chopped
  • sea salt flakes & freshly ground black pepper
  • rapeseed oil, for frying

Relish

  • 50g desiccated coconut
  • ½ small red onion, finely diced
  • 1 green chilli, finely chopped
  • juice of 1 lime
  • small handful of coriander leaves, chopped
  • small handful of mint leaves, chopped
  • sea salt flakes & freshly ground black pepper
  • pinch of caster sugar

Instructions

  • Roughly chop the fish into small pieces and put into a food processor with all the other kofta ingredients. Season well and pulse until combined. Mould into 20 small koftas and pop in the fridge to chill for half an hour.
  • Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine all the relish ingredients and leave to one side.
  • Add a little oil to a frying pan and fry the koftas until cooked through – this will take about 3-4 minutes on each side.
  • Serve immediately on the warmed flatbreads with the coconut relish.
