    Method

    • Step-by-step Method: Haddock with Coconut-Curry Sauce
    • Measure and prepare all ingredients as listed.
    • Pat haddock fillets dry with paper towel; season both sides lightly with salt and black pepper.
    • Peel and finely mince the garlic.
    • Peel and finely grate the ginger.
    • Chop cilantro and parsley separately and finely.
    • Cut fresh limes in half; squeeze to extract lime juice, reserve wedges for serving.
    • In a small bowl, mix cumin, coriander, turmeric, cardamom, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper.
    • In a large nonstick skillet or sauté pan, heat olive oil over medium heat.
    • Once oil is shimmering, add minced garlic and grated ginger; sauté 1 minute until aromatic.
    • Sprinkle in the mixed spices; stir 30 seconds until fragrant, to bloom the spices.
    • Pour in coconut milk and vegetable broth; stir to fully combine.
    • Increase heat to bring sauce just to a gentle simmer.
    • Reduce heat to low; stir in 2 tablespoons lime juice and half the chopped cilantro.
    • Taste sauce; adjust seasoning with salt and pepper as needed.
    • Gently nestle haddock fillets in simmering sauce in a single layer.
    • Cover pan and cook 7-9 minutes (depending on fillet thickness), until haddock is opaque and flakes easily with a fork.
    • Using a spatula, carefully transfer haddock fillets to serving plates.
    • Spoon coconut-curry sauce generously over and around each fillet.
    • Top each portion with reserved chopped parsley and remaining cilantro.
    • Garnish with extra lime wedges on the side.
    • Serve immediately, pairing with steamed jasmine rice or lightly wilted spinach if desired for full presentation.
