Roast cod on spiced Puy lentils

I just had to put this one on...it's so simple to make and absolutely heavenly!




Ingredients:


For the fish- 2 tbsp olive oil mixed with 2tsp of curry powder. 4x cod fillets


For the Lentils- 
275g of Puy lentils ( I cheated and used a precooked packet-which were well worth it £1.99 from Tesco)
1 tbsp olive oil
2 chopped garlic cloves
1 finely chopped red chilli
half a  tsp of cumin
1 red onion
4 tbsp chicken stock
lemon juice
3 tbsp chopped coriander
low fat yoghurt
cayenne pepper.


Method:
Preheat oven to 200c.
If using dried lentils, cook for 20 mins till tender. 
Brush curried oil over fish, then fry in ovenproof pan, skin side down for 2 mins. Turn over and place into oven, cook for 7 mins. 
Meanwhile heat oil in a pan, add garlic, cumin stir for a couple of mins then add the lentils, onion and stock, add lemon juice to taste. Stir in coriander. 
Spoon onto plates and top with cod, dollop with yoghurt and a pinch of cayenne pepper.


Enjoy
