Instructions

Halibut is a wonderful robust meaty fish that works well with strong flavours. If you cant get hold of Halibut then any white fish will work. The marinade for the fish is a classic lemon, turmeric, garlic concoction but this dish is more about the kasundi sauce. It's spicy yet creamy, soothing yet tangy and I love it. The kale crisps work as a snack too but with this dish they add a warming crunch thats just delicious.
