How to Cook - Baked Green Halibut with Curry

Chlorophyll is a green pigment found in all plants. It's important not only for plant growth but also for providing essential antioxidants and boosting immunity. Lutein is a member of the carotenoid family (responsible for the yellow, red, and orange colors in fruits and vegetables), but it's cleverly hidden behind the green mask of chlorophyll in kale, a major source of vitamins. Lutein may also be beneficial for eye health. It requires a lot of fat for absorption (this isn't a problem; coconut milk, which is plant-based, easily handles this).

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:


  1. Preheat oven to 180 degrees.

    Combine cilantro, mint, coconut milk, 2 tablespoons water, 1 tablespoon oil, brown sugar, lime juice, garlic, ginger, pepper, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a food processor. Process until smooth, then transfer to a small bowl.
  2. Line a 70 cm (28 in) baking sheet with foil. Spread the cabbage with the remaining 1 tablespoon of oil and sprinkle with salt. Place it in the center of the foil.

    Place the fish fillets on top and sprinkle with 1/4 teaspoon of salt. Spread the curry sauce evenly over each piece. Cover with another piece of foil, leaving a hole in the center for steam to escape, and seal the edges.

    Bake until the fish is cooked through and the greens are crisp, 15-20 minutes. Carefully unwrap the foil and divide the "green" fillets among servings. Garnish with cilantro and serve with lime wedges.
