Indian Spiced Fish With Coriander Rice

This was in Recipe+ as part of their budget series and looks to be very flavoursome. To further cut costs you could use chicken tenderloins instead of fish fillets and use all steamed basmati rice intead of wild rice blend. To get 3 cups of cooked basmati and wild rice blend you will need to cook 1 1/2 cups raw.
