Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

  1. Preheat the oven to 200C / fan 180C / gas mark 6. Bring a large saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil. Add the rice and boil for 25-30 mins, until cooked, then drain. Return to the pan and set aside.
  2. Bring another saucepan filled with salted hot water to a boil. Dice the sweet potato into 1cm cubes (peel optional), then add to the saucepan. Boil for 6-8 mins, until almost cooked. Drain, and set aside.
  3. Thinly slice the spring onions. Finely chop or grate the ginger. Dice the pepper into 1cm squares. Heat a large frying pan or wok with 1/2 tbsp oil on medium-high heat. Add the ginger and half the spring onions, then cook for 2-3 mins. Add the pepper, turmeric and spice mix and cook for 1 min. Add the coconut milk, sugar snaps and almost-cooked sweet potato. Simmer for 10-12 mins, until the sweet potato is soft.
  4. Thinly slice half the lime into 4 rounds. Place the cod onto a large, lined baking tray and top each fillet with a lime round. Drizzle with 1/2 tbsp oil and season with sea salt and black pepper. Bake for 10-15 mins, until cooked through.
  5. Stir the remaining spring onions through the cooked rice. Season the curry with a squeeze of lime juice (to taste), a pinch of sea salt and black pepper.
  6. Serve the rice alongside the curry, with the cod on top.
