Cod and Spinach in Coconut Sauce

This recipe is part of my “Naked Kitchen” repertoire. These are recipes I take with me when we go on vacation and will stay someplace where the kitchen has an empty fridge and pantry. The recipes are easy to make, and flavors are simple.

Ocassionaly I make these meals at home because of their simplicity. They fall into the “comfort food” zone for me. And are also wonderful options when someone in the house is not feeling well.

Variations:

  • Use white fish other than cod, or chicken breast
  • Use kale or broccoli instead of spinach
  • Enhance the flavors with cumin, curry and tumeric if available (about 1/2 teaspoon each)

I serve it with CMF Rice mixed with chopped parsley or cilantro. And chopped nuts if available.
