    Sensational dish!! I used cod and supplemented leftovers with shrimp the following night. I cooked the fish for less time than specified i the recipe as I think the cod would have disintegrated with a longer cook time. Sauce is just fabulous. It has an intriguing tamarind/sour lime flavor mixed with dill and cilantro.
