Preparation

What You Need

1 tbsp (15 ml) whole cumin seed
1 tbsp (15 ml) whole coriander seed
2 tbsp (30 ml) sweet paprika
1 tbsp (15 ml) granulated sugar
1/2 tsp (2 ml) coarse sea salt
1 tsp (5 ml) ground black pepper
1/2 tsp (2 ml) ground turmeric
1/4 tsp (1 ml) ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp (1 ml) cayenne pepper (optional)
1 cup (250 ml) 6% plain yogurt
1 clove garlic, minced
2 tsp (10 ml) finely grated fresh ginger
Pinch saffron
Four 3 1/2 oz (100 g) pieces fresh or frozen thawed cod

Instructions

In small heavy skillet, toast cumin and coriander seeds over medium heat, stirring, until fragrant and slightly darkened, about 3 minutes. Set aside and let cool. Transfer to spice grinder or clean coffee grinder and grind. In a small bowl, combine ground cumin and coriander, paprika, sugar, salt, pepper, turmeric, cinnamon, and cayenne (if using). In a medium bowl, combine yogurt with the spice blend and stir in garlic, ginger and saffron.

Pat cod pieces dry; place in a lightly buttered 13 x 9-inch (3 L) glass baking dish. Divide yogurt mixture over each cod piece and spread to coat. Refrigerate for at least 1 hour or up to 4 hours.

Preheat oven to 425°F (220°C). Bake uncovered, for 12 to 15 minutes, or until fish flakes easily when touched with a fork.


Tips

Pat frozen thawed fish pieces with paper towels to remove any excess moisture.
