Turmeric may be viewed as the poor man’s saffron but it still makes a punchy statement in this tomato-based sauce, which also contains fennel seeds, chilli and freshly squeezed orange juice.

The sweet and slightly spicy sauce is a marriage made in heaven as it rises to complement the mild and slightly sweet Hoki fish fillets.

Hoki is more widely known across New Zealand but if you persevere, can be found fresh in Australia as well. It has a thick flesh making it a perfect fish to braise in this sauce.

Hoki can be substituted with cod or hake, but do make the effort to find this fish as you won’t be disappointed with its taste.

It’s also high in Omega 3 and makes a nice change to other rich omega fish such as Salmon.
