White fish curry with brown rice
Phase 3 dinner: mild white fish curry with coconut and spinach on brown rice, protein-rich with wholemeal carbs in moderation.
This white fish curry with brown rice is a fragrant, mild dish that fills the kitchen with warm aromas. Chunks of cod or pollock gently braise in a creamy sauce of red curry paste and coconut milk, with spinach weaving through towards the end. Served on nutty brown rice, it becomes a comforting, satisfying meal.
For Phase 3 of the protein diet, where wholemeal carbohydrates return in moderation, this curry is a perfect choice. With 35 grams of protein from the white fish and 42 grams of carbohydrates from the brown rice, you're in a lovely balance. The lean protein and fibre-rich wholemeal rice keep you satisfied for longer, whilst light coconut milk keeps things creamy but light.
Lovely with a squeeze of lime juice and some fresh coriander just before serving. A pinch of chilli flakes or a spoonful of yoghurt alongside gives the curry that little bit extra.
