Tandoori Spiced Fish Roti Wraps
Serves makes 4 wraps
Time 30 minutes
Ingredients
For the Wraps
4 roti breads
400g white fish fillets (like cod or tilapia)
½ red onion, thinly sliced
½ cucumber, julienned
1 carrot, grated
1 handful of fresh spinach or lettuce
Fresh coriander leaves, for garnish
Tandoori Marinade
½ cup Greek yoghurt (or dairy-free alternative)
1 tbsp lemon juice
1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1 tbsp tandoori masala powder (or make your own with ground cumin, coriander, turmeric, paprika, and chilli powder)
½ tsp ground ginger
½ tsp garlic powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Cucumber-Mint Yoghurt Sauce
½ cup Greek yoghurt (or dairy-free alternative)
¼ cup cucumber, finely grated
¼ cup fresh mint leaves, finely chopped
1 tbsp lemon juice
Salt to taste
Method
In a bowl, mix together Greek yoghurt, lemon juice, extra virgin olive oil, tandoori masala, ginger, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Add the fish fillets, making sure they are fully coated with the marinade. Cover and let marinate in the fridge for at least 30 minutes (or up to 2 hours for a stronger flavour).
In a small bowl, combine the yoghurt, grated cucumber, chopped mint, lemon juice, and salt. Stir well and set aside.
Preheat a grill pan or skillet over medium-high heat. Lightly oil the pan, then cook the fish fillets for 3-4 minutes on each side until cooked through and flaky. Remove from heat and break into bite-sized pieces.
Lay a roti bread flat on a clean surface. Spread a spoonful of the cucumber-mint yoghurt sauce onto each roti. Add a layer of spinach or lettuce, then arrange pieces of tandoori fish on top.
Add red onion, cucumber, and carrot for crunch and freshness. Garnish with fresh coriander leaves.
Fold the sides of the roti inward and then roll tightly from the bottom up to create a wrap. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make 4 wraps in total.
