Step 1

Preheat the oven to 180°C fan.

Step 2

Step 3

Stir in the drained chickpeas and coconut milk and continue cooking for a further 8-10 minutes on a low simmer.

Step 4

Top with the tenderstem broccoli, nestle in the defrosted cod and brush over the remaining curry paste onto the fish. Season wth a pinch of salt before popping the whole dish into the preheated oven to bake for 10 minutes. (If cooking from frozen, add a further 15 minutes onto the cooking time, adding a splash of water to the chickpeas so they don't dry out).

Serve the cod and curried chickpeas with a spoonful of yoghurt, a squeeze of lime, coriander and a sprinkle of nigella seeds and the warmed rice, if using.
