Top Tips

Expert Tips That I Recommend

  • Often, I like to combine all the spices by heating them in a dry pan. This gives the fish curry a nice roasted flavor.
  • If you want to make this dish fresh and light, squeeze a few drops of lemon on top. This adds a lemony zest to the dish, which hits both the sweet and sour notes.
  • I made this recipe in a saucepan, but you can also use an instant pot or a slow cooker.
  • One tip I always follow is to let the fish rest after cooking for at least half an hour. This allows the flavors to meld and the texture to settle.
  • I highly recommend looking for a fish with firm flesh, clear eyes, and a fresh, mild sea smell. Avoid fish with a strong fishy odor or dull eyes.

How To Make Gordon Ramsay Fish Curry At Home

Recipe Variations For Different Diets

  • Keto Diet Friendly: I replace aubergine, peas, and carrots with vegetables like cauliflower, broccoli, or celery which are low in crabs. The latter options contain less starch while the former ones are high in carbs and peas even have higher sugar content.
  • Vegetarian: Therefore, You can replace the fish to with vegetables to please your vegetarian guests
  • Vegan: If you are vegan, I suggest you try this recipe with chickpeas, tomatoes, or tofu. It will taste delish.

Storing And Reheating This Recipe

Storing 

  • Countertop: I have observed that leaving the fish curry on the countertop for the entire day does not impact the taste or flavors. However, at night, it needs to be refrigerated to prevent bacterial growth. If you live in hot weather, I suggest you refrigerate it after 2-3 hours max.
  • Refrigeration: I have kept it in the fridge for 2-3 days. However, I always ensure that I am using an airtight container or zip-lock bag because we don’t want the moisture in the refrigeration to play with our spices.
  • Freezing: Freezing is a great way to enjoy this Gordon Ramsay Fish Curry for 2-3 months. When I freeze it, I always use airtight bags and freezer-friendly containers to maintain its flavor and quality.

Reheating

  • Microwave: I add some water and heat it for 5 mins at low medium. I also advise you to check in between to prevent burning or excess drying of the fish curry.
  • Stovetop: Using stovetop is one of my ideal ways to reheat it. I gently add some water to the dish and place it on the stovetop, which helps prevent the dish from drying out. Ideally, when the curry starts shimmering and gets warm enough, I know it is ready to serve. 
  • Instant Pot: I add some water below the heating bowl and let it heat at medium heat for about 25 minutes until it is nicely hot enough.  

What To Serve With This Recipe

I believe that fish curry is incomplete without a bowl of steamed rice on the side. But you can also have this with Crispy Rice. However, rice may not suit everyone.

If that is the case with you, you can try this with Corn Salad. If you find salads to be too dry, try this spicy fish curry. You can also go for veggie salads and enjoy the fusion of flavors and texture in your tummy.

When all the above options fail to impress me, I go for classic Pugliese Bread to have something light and enjoy the fish as the main highlight of the dish. I also enjoy this dish with Garlic Noodles, which is a blessing to your taste buds.
