Mackerel in Curry Sauce w/ Another Curry
I visited Porto a few months ago and finally opened up the tin I was most excited to try! It’s the Mackerel in Curry Sauce from Jose Gourmet. I mostly bought it because the packaging was so cute. I first made a coconut cinnamon basmati rice. Then I made the curry with pretty standard aromatic base, and added spinach and cashews for health and texture. I added the mackerel at the end just to heat it up and infuse for 5ish min.
It’s not the prettiest dish to photograph but WOW! one of the best things i’ve eaten recently. the curry I made was super bright from the coriander seeds and lemon peel, but the fish itself had an amazing zesty/bright taste and such a good firm texture. (according to the ingredients list) the marinade from the tin is not super complex, so it melded with what I made so well.
I included picture of the recipe I haphazardly typed (sorry for typos) right after making it so I wouldn’t forget! I’m excited to come up with more ways to use my other tins.
