Cod curry with red lentils is a one-pot meal: simmer the lentils with onion, curry powder, ginger, and coconut milk into a thick sauce, then gently cook the pieces of cod in it for just a few minutes. The red lentils break down as they cook, thickening the sauce naturally.

Prepare the base
5 minSauté the finely chopped onion in the oil until translucent. Add the garlic, ginger, and curry powder and cook, stirring, for 1 minute.
Cook the lentils
20 minAdd the rinsed lentils, water, and coconut milk. Season with salt and simmer for 15–20 minutes, until the lentils break down into a thick sauce. Add more water as needed.
Gently cook the cod
8 minCut the cod into large pieces, season lightly with salt, and place in the sauce. Cover and simmer over low heat for 6–8 minutes, until the fish is white and flakes easily.
Serve
Drizzle with lime juice and serve on its own or with rice.
Tip: Once you add the fish to the sauce, do not stir; just gently shake the pot to keep the large pieces of cod intact.
