Good to marry, they say!

Steaks cod with coconut milk and curry (so Laotian)

This recipe fits very well with white meats (I recommend the fried pork) and white fish (the flesh stands! Therefore better to avoid the nets, except to cook separately). Just adjust the cooking time.

For 4 people, you must:

- 4 cod steaks
-
2 onions - 3 or 4 carrots
- 3 or 4 peppers (vary the colors: red, orange, yellow, green, beautiful! )
- 1 stalk celery
- 1 small fennel bulb
- from cooking oil
- 500 ml milk Coconut
-
soy sauce - fresh ginger
-
fresh cilantro - coriander powder
- 1 or 2 star anise flowers
- a bit of curry (very little)
- salt, pepper ( 5 or 6 bays, prefer, or a Szechuan pepper)
- optional: cayenne powder (to be determined according to taste)


It can give a nicer attitude than that, obviously ...

1) Chop onions, peppers, carrots, celery, not too thin and a bit of fennel.

2) Blanch the onion In a pan with a little oil (canola or sunflower, for a neutral taste, knowing that rape has better nutritional qualities). Book.

3) Enter the steaks in the skillet, quickly, then fry in a little soy sauce over medium heat (1-2 minutes per side only).

4) When the steaks are colored, add the coconut milk, onions, carrots, celery (chopped branch plus a few leaves), fennel, a few shavings of ginger (cut the potato peeler, c is good practice), cilantro and spices.

5) After 10 minutes, remove the steaks and set aside. (This step is not necessary if the dish is made with pork, for example. It just allows to avoid cooking time too long.)

6) Add the peppers. Cook for 10 minutes, then turn the fish for 2-3 minutes.

is ready! Serve with jasmine rice, basmati, or Thai, and a good white wine!

To taste the best version of this dish, go to Lao Lane Xang, 123 Avenue d'Ivry if I remember correctly, Paris XIII (no need to budget for gastrointestinal, prices are very low, and it does date no VAT to 5.5! By cons, so, better book. And as input, prenez des nems lao !)
