Cupboard Essentials
- 3 tbsp olive oil

*Defrost the fish in warm water or in the fridge overnight*
Start by adding the defrosted cod into a large mixing bowl. Add 1 tbsp of olive oil, the juice of a lime, 1 tsp of chilli powder, 1 tsp cumin and ½ tsp of paprika. Gently move the cod so that it is evenly coated. Cover and pop in the fridge.
Finely dice the tomatoes (removing the inner juicy bit) and red onion. Add into a mixing bowl with the juice of 1 lime and some roughly chopped coriander. Season with salt.
In a blender, add the black beans (with the water) and a tsp of cumin. Season with salt and blend a little.
Add 1 tbsp of olive oil in a frying pan on a high heat and pour in the black bean mix and fry until you get a dip like consistency.
Clean the pan and remove the cod from the fridge.
Add a tbsp of olive oil into the frying pan on a med/high heat. Fry the cod on each side for 4 minutes.
Serve with the heated rice, black bean sauce, tomato salsa and top with the fried fish, fresh cori with a squeeze of lime xxx
(Keep the salsa and coriander separate from the meal prep containers so you can serve it cold after heating up the rest.)
