Method

  1. To make the chutney, put the coriander, chilli, coconut, lemon juice, ginger and cumin in a food processor. Add good pinches of salt and sugar, then pulse until it has a rough salsa-like consistency.
  2. Rinse the rice and place in a deep frying pan with 225ml water. Bring to the boil, then turn down low - it will take about 8 mins to cook.
  3. After about 3 mins, place the fish fillets on top of the rice, then dot a tsp of butter on each and spread the fresh chutney over in a thick layer. Cover with a lid and cook over a low heat for about 5 mins until the fish and rice are cooked through.
  4. Serve the fish and rice with the yogurt, warmed naan breads and the lemon wedges.
