Spicy Cod With Tomatoes and Spinach
"I've been trying to make healthy tasty recipes for my family with what I have on hand. This came about as an experiment. My husband asked me to submit it so we wouldn't lose it. I consider that a pretty high compliment! Serve this over noodles (I used whole wheat elbows but something with some nooks and crannies to catch the sauce would be great!) with some veggies and bread."

This was really good on sun dried tomato couscous. I added chopped chili and a splash of Worcester sauce to keep it interesting. -
Wonderful is all I can say. I definately will make this again. I followed the recipe as written and served over angel hair pasta and served with a green salad. What a great dish...thank you. Made for Zaar Cookbook Tag game. -
This was really good! We served it over whole wheat couscous, and it absorbed the sauce wonderfully! -
Delicious and healthy! Served over angel hair pasta, this made a lovely meal. -
This was delicious! I also used fresh green chillies but made the rest of the recipe as written. I served it with a potato salad on the side.

Ladypit your DH sure has good taste! I made this for dinner tonight and served it over rice. WIth a salad at the side. I used King fish (used fresh fish that I bought yesterday which I always marinate as soon as I clean it with turmeric, salt and vinegar) and fresh tomatoes and spinach (no concept of tinned veges here) Added some coriander powder to the sauce as the tomatoes simmered. I did cook the tomatoes longer till they were incorporated in the sauce. And added ketchup instead of tomato paste and fresh green chillies chopped. Very unusual and tasty. Keep these healthy experiments of yours coming sweetie. They enrich our lives too. Thank you :) Fay
