ingredients
- 2 lbs cod, 4 fillets
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon cayenne (optional)
- 1 dash salt
- 1 dash black pepper
- 2 tablespoons spicy brown mustard
- 1 tablespoon butter
- 1 lemon, wedged
directions
- Dust cod with cumin, salt, pepper and cayenne.
- Spread mustard over fish.
- If grilling use the butter to baste, this of course means you'll need to melt the butter.
- Grill for about 3 minutes per side.
- You could alternatively broil for 3-4 minutes per side in the oven.
- In this case, place the fish on a broiling pan and dot each fillet with butter before putting it in the oven (on broil).
- Either way the fish flesh will be white, firm and flake easily with a fork when done.
- Serve with lemon wedges.

My Husband and I gave this recipe a try with a twist. We added a few ingredients and left out the mustard. We added Onion Powder, Celery Salt, White Pepper, Sugar, Black Pepper, Corriander, and Paprika...made it into a dry rub...and it was awsome. Just the right amount of hot to add flavor without the over powering flavor of the Mustard which some didnt seem to like.

I had to modify this a bit, because I need to go grocery shopping really badly. I used old fashioned whole grain dijon mustard instead of the spicy (it was all I had) and I used garlic butter rather than just butter (it was all I had). A different, refreshing taste from blah fish. Thanks for the recipe, I enjoyed it. Next time I'll try to follow the recipe a bit closer! I mean, go grocery shopping....

I'm male, early 30's and live with my longtime girlfriend. I do the cooking, she does the baking. We both do the eating. ;^)
What else? I have a spicy food addiction and have over 30 hot sauces taking up too much space in my fridge. I also have hard time not buying any cook book that I find that has great pictures - especially if I'm hungry. Many of them I never use for more than inspiration... looking through them gets me thinking about what I would like to make or eat.
