Ingredients

  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 tsp light soy sauce
  • 2 tsp mirin
  • 1 tbsp rice vinegar
  • 500g white cabbage, shredded
  • 400g carrots, cut into 2cm chunks
  • 100g katsu curry paste
  • 450g lightly dusted lemon sole fillets (or use goujons, scampi or fish fingers)
  • 300g rice (we used short grain)

Method

  • Step 1

    For the cabbage, whisk the oil, soy sauce, mirin and vinegar in a mixing bowl until emulsified to make a dressing. Add the shredded cabbage, toss well and set aside.

  • Step 2

    Fill a pan with 750ml water; bring to the boil, add the carrots and cook for 15 mins or until tender. Strain the carrots, reserving the water. Return the cooking water to the pan and set over a low heat. Whisk in the curry paste; cook for 3 mins until thickened. Add the carrots and keep warm.

  • Step 3

    Meanwhile, cook the fish and the rice according to pack instructions.

  • Step 4

    Serve the sauce over the fish with the rice and a big spoonful of cabbage. Leftover sauce keeps in a chilled airtight container for 3 days.
