So much easier to make meals when everything is a 3 minute walk from the house and my favorite Cafe is on the way.
Really, I will cry when I have to go back to Stuttgart! But right now I’m laughing everyday and, I guess that’s what counts 🙂
Ginger Cod with Zucchini Ribbon Salad
1 fillet of cod, cut into serving size pieces
Salt and pepper
Ginger powder
2 tbsp olive oil
2 zucchini, cut into ribbons
1/4 each, yellow and orange bell peppers, cut into thin strips
1 tsp fresh ginger, grated
1/4 cup rice vinegar
1 tbsp soy sauce
Juice 1/2 lemon
1 tbsp honey
1 tbsp sesame oil
Season the cod pieces with salt, pepper and the ginger powder and set aside.
Steam the zucchini and peppers for 3 minutes, rinse with cold water, drain and pat dry, then place in a mixing bowl.
Whisk together the fresh ginger, vinegar, soy sauce, lemon juice, honey and sesame oil, then pour over the zucchini and peppers, blending well. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
Fry the cod in the olive oil until cooked and serve with the zucchini salad.
Wine suggestion: Bourgogne Aligote
That sounds good – I hadn’t thought of cod with ginger before 😉
Thank you Mad. I was just going to season it with salt and pepper but I had an Asian thing going with the salad 🙂
Ach komm’ doch, Stuttgart ist auch nicht schlecht! 🙂
Aber es ist nicht Frankreich 🙂 Google translate 😀
I’ll have to make your cod! It is my favorite fish and I love the idea of ginger with cod. Plus, the zucchini ribbons (looks like yellow squash too?) are fabulous. 🙂
Thank you tiny. No the yellow is bell pepper.
This looks really yummy! Do you just use a regular vegetable peeler to make the ribbons?
Hi. Yes, I used a regular vegetable peeler.
Why did I look at this before lunch? Now I am hungry! 🙂
That’s a good thing Arthur! You can make the fish tomorrow 🙂
That looks perfect for summer, Rosemary! Glad to see you back in Sens 🙂 are you there for the whole summer?
Thank you Daisy. I’ll be here all summer except for 2 weeks in the States.
Yum what a delicious looking dinner. Looks light and full of flavour!
Thank you Leslie.
perfectly seared!
that’s a preety thick cod fillet
i guess there’s someting fancy about ribbon shaved salad
i’ve made a greek salad with ribbonned cucumber before,it has a preety impressive looks…
Thank you Dedy.
I love cod and this looks so tasty!
Thank you Anne, I love it myself 🙂
I wish you didn’t have to go
Back to Stuttgart… Don’t go back to Stuttgart?
We wish I didn’t have to go back to Stuttgart, but I have to go back to Stuttgart until June next year when my husband will retire. Though I do get to come back to Sens from time to time during our daughter’s school vacation 🙂
🙂
That is one sexy fish dish!
Thank you Keith.
This is gorgeous! So simple yet flavorful. I’m glad I read the comments because I was going to ask how to cut the veggies into ribbons. I’m definitely going to do that. It makes it so much more elegant than giant chunks. Fish is best when its natural flavor is barely tampered with. Good job!
Thank you Amanda. I’d like to try poaching the fish next time in a light soy sauce flavored broth.
The cod looks just perfect. I’ll bet the dish was delicious and light.
Damn Stuttgart.
Thank you Conor. Damn Stuttgart 🙂
This looks delightful! But I’m unfortunately allergic to soy, so I can’t use soy sauce. Would there be other great substitutes to mimic that flavor?
Hi. I honestly don’t know. You could make your preferred vinaigrette for the salad.
coconut aminos
Hi @kidkihei I’ve tried coconut aminos…not too bad but still missing that umami flavor. Still on the search 🙂
That looks absolutely delicious, very light and flavourful.
Thank you Linda. It was very light, yet satisfying.
Look at that wonderful piece of fish!
Thank you Raymund.
This sounds and looks so refreshing!
It was 🙂
God’s in his heaven; all’s right with the world. (For now. :))
Living for the moment 🙂
What a nice, light meal. That cod looks amazing.
Thank you Greg.
