Amazing one-pot meal you can make in the Instant Pot in less than 20 minutes.
Delicious mixture of rice, fish and spices you an serve for dinner or lunch.
Please note that this Instant Pot recipe is spicy. If you don't like hot food, you can remove the jalapeno peppers.
You can add different flavors in it according to your choice and enjoy it.
Which fish to use?
Free to use any fish you like. Cod or Salmon work best in my opinion.

I needed a simple one pot meal using fish and stumbled across this recipe. Thought I'd give it a go - we're not heat fans so I left out the jalapenos (and I must confess that I forgot the garlic!). After setting the pressure cooker going, I was doubtful that the meal would go down well - no sauce at all, which we're used to having with any Indian cuisine. However, I have to say that this was delicious! Very subtle, gentle flavours. I've saved the recipe and will be sharing it too!
Please specify exactly what veggies are you suggesting to add in Step 3
Hi,
Thanks for sharing this great recipe. As I'm trying it out now, I have a few suggestions: some ingredients are listed but not in the actual recipe (the ghee for ex), then the recipe doesn't really say when to add the mint and coriander. Some serving tips would be great too!
Thank you very much for the hard work.
