Indian Spiced Fish With Coriander Rice
"This was in Recipe+ as part of their budget series and looks to be very flavoursome. To further cut costs you could use chicken tenderloins instead of fish fillets and use all steamed basmati rice intead of wild rice blend. To get 3 cups of cooked basmati and wild rice blend you will need to cook 1 1/2 cups raw."

My review is basically for the fish, since I made basmati without the wild rice and added some curry powder, along with the cilantro. I served the peas as a side dish. Now for the fish; delicious and quick. I used tilapia fillets. Lots of flavor and a nice crispy coating. I will be making this again. Made for Spring 2014 PAC. -
I made this last night after a long day at work, and it was sooooo delicious! Quick to prepare too. I used amberjack, and it was a bit over an inch thick, so I cooked it a bit longer, even browning the sides of the fish to a beautiful golden color. The rice was a perfect complement. I will definitely make this again. Thanks Pat for sharing your delicious recipe! Made for Rookie tag game. -
Review is just for the fish. Really delicious and flavorful. I used cornstarch instead of flour - a trick I learned in a Chinese cooking class - it makes a very crispy crust. I cooked some cauliflower with turmeric-flavored water to make a very nice side dish. Also had some braised beets. This is a very quick dish to make, perfect for a workday night.

With the demise of the forums and with no more interaction on site with what was a great community and it was a pleasure to get to know so many of you over the years and to have had the privilege of meeting some of you in person. For me now this is just another recipe site like to many on the net, it has lost its specialness, such a pity especially when Scripps changed the name from Recipezaar to Food.com and made this statement sorry cannot replicate here as considered invalid but they basically said yes the community was valuable hence .com was short for community but it was a pack of lies as they were not willing to put the money into that community and got rid of the forums which was the community so for .com has become .crap.
