Recipe Summary Spring Pea Green Curry With Black Cod And Strawberry

I've always loved green curries, but until a recent visit to Al's Place I'd never thought of using fresh, sweet peas as the base. It was amazing, and after only a few bites I knew I'd steal this idea and make it my own. Sorry, Al. You can use snow peas or English peas in place of sugar snap peas, if desired.

Ingredients | Black Cod Alaska

1 yellow onion, diced

4 teaspoons vegetable oil, divided, or as needed

1 teaspoon salt, or more to taste

3 tablespoons green curry paste, or more to taste

2 cups chicken broth

1 pound sugar snap peas, trimmed

1 tablespoon fish sauce

1 splash lime juice, or to taste

1 pound boneless black cod, cut into eight 2-ounce pieces, skin scored 1/8-inch deep

¼ cup diced strawberries

2 teaspoons thinly sliced fresh mint leaves

Directions

Cook and stir onion, 1 tablespoon vegetable oil, and 1 teaspoon salt in a saucepan over medium heat until onion is translucent, 5 to 10 minutes. Stir in green curry paste; cook and stir until fragrant, 2 to 3 minutes.

Pour chicken broth into curry-onion mixture; bring to a boil and add peas. Cover the pot with a lid and cook until peas are just tender, about 2 minutes.

Pour peas mixture into a blender no more than half full. Cover and hold lid down; pulse a few times before leaving on to blend. Puree in batches until smooth. Pour pureed pea mixture through a fine-mesh strainer into the same saucepan; set over low heat. Stir in fish sauce and lime juice; season with green curry paste and salt to taste.

Season black cod pieces all over with salt.

Heat 1 teaspoon vegetable oil in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Place cod, skin-side down, in hot oil and cook, turning once, until fish flakes easily with a fork, 4 to 6 minutes.

Ladle green curry sauce into 4 bowls. Place 2 pieces of cod, skin-side up, in sauce and garnish with strawberries and mint.
