How to cook it

Prep everything first: chop the aromatics, measure the galangal and chilli elements, and pat the cod dry so it colours well.

Warm the olive oil in a large pan over a medium heat and soften the onion and garlic until sweet and translucent, about 5 minutes.

Turn up the heat and add the cod. Fry until deeply crisp and golden, then drain on paper and season straight away.

Stir in the coconut milk and the rest of the galangal and chilli flavours, letting them cook out for a minute until fragrant.

Add the carrots along with a splash of stock or water, then cook briskly until everything is tender and the sauce clings.

Tested in the Stewart & Musell kitchen. Timings assume a standard home oven and hob.
