Recipe - Steamed Hake With Cumin And Coriander Lentils

2 225 g; (8oz) thick pieces
; of hake skin on
; but no bones
80 g Lentil de puy; soaked for 24
hours
; in cold water (3oz)
One half Carrot
One fourth Leek
2 Cloves garlic
One fourth Red onion
300 ml Red wine; (10 1/2fl oz)
1 Lime; juice and zest
Virgin olive oil
Balsamic vinegar
Ground cumin powder
40 g Coriander; (1 1/2oz)
Seasoning

Dice the carrot, leek, garlic and onion finely, saut‚ them off in a pan
with a little olive oil and add the red wine and the lentils that have been
drained. Turn up the heat and simmer gently, after about ten minutes add
about 1 tsp of the ground cumin powder and continue cooking for about 20
minutes.

While this is cooking, cook the hake in a non–stick pan, skin side
down in a little olive oil. Cook on one side for about 2 minutes and then
turn over. Try to avoid turning it more than once, as the cod will fall
into bits during cooking.

Season the lentils with salt and pepper, lime and fold in lots of freshly
chopped coriander and finish with a drizzle of balsamic vinegar, to give it
an extra kick.

Serve on a plate with the cod on top and either garnish with somne fresh
herbs or with a drizzle of olive oil.
