The pearlescent cod is, of course, the focal point of this beautifully simple recipe, but the creamy, curried sauce studded with plump mussels and julienned carrots almost steals the show. A wonderfully easy dish to put together – serve with potatoes or seasonal greens to turn it into a fuller meal.
Dr Jenna Macchiochi's nutrition notes:
"This is a really rich and satisfying dish – a great, healthy alternative to a typical takeaway – and perfect for the start of the new year when transitioning from indulgent Christmas food while it's still cold outside. Mussels are one of the most well-rounded foods to include in your diet, high in zinc, iron and other minerals, vitamins A and B12."
