Instructions

1. Step 1: In a pot, combine rinsed basmati rice, coconut milk, water, salt, and turmeric powder. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the rice is cooked and fluffy (approximately 15 minutes). Set aside and keep warm.
2. Step 2: Heat 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a large skillet. Add cumin seeds and let them sizzle for 30 seconds. Add grated ginger, minced garlic, and stir for 1 minute.
3. Step 3: Add julienned carrots, bell peppers, and green beans to the skillet. Sprinkle red chili powder and a pinch of salt. Stir-fry on medium-high heat until vegetables are tender but crisp (about 5 minutes). Set aside.
4. Step 4: Marinate fish fillets with lemon juice, black pepper powder, and a pinch of salt. Heat the remaining 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil in a grill pan over medium heat. Grill the fish fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until cooked through and lightly charred.
5. Step 5: Plate the coconut rice, top with stir-fried vegetables, and place grilled fish on the side. Garnish with chopped coriander leaves and serve warm.
