Tips

Ensure the cod is well coated with the spice mix and olive oil to absorb the flavors. For a more intense flavor, marinate the cod a few hours in advance or even overnight (covered in the refrigerator).

Cod is delicate and breaks apart easily. Once it’s in the pan, avoid stirring. Let it simmer gently.

Keep an eye on the sauce as it cooks. If it becomes too thick, add a small splash of water. If it’s too thin, let it simmer uncovered for an additional 5–10 minutes.

Garnish the dish with extra fresh parsley or a bit of lemon zest before serving.

Serve with freshly baked bread to soak up the sauce. You can also pair it with a fresh salad for a complete meal.

Stappenplan

1

In a bowl, combine turmeric powder, ras el hanout, coriander powder, cayenne powder, garlic powder, and salt. Mix well. Set aside 7 grams of the spice mix for the cod mixture.
