Dinner Wednesday 13 December - Cod with Coriander Sauce


I had a huge bunch of coriander from Chapel Market and was trying to think of ways to use it, so I made this sauce which is loosely based on pesto.

Coriander Sauce
60g walnut pieces
6 small green chillies
3 clove garlic
juice of 1/2 lemon (about 2 tablespoons)
1 teaspoon ground cumin
50g fresh coriander leaves
salt & pepper to taste
Process all ingredients together in a blender, food processor or mortar & pestle to a rough paste.

Makes 2 servings.

I used one portion on top of a cod fillet which I then baked and served with some runner beans and broccoli.
