Recipe type: Entree
Cuisine: Norwegian
Serves: 2 servings
Ingredients
  • ¾ cup wheat berries
  • 2¼ cups water
  • 2 tsp fresh dill, minced
  • ½ tsp olive oil
  • ¼ tsp each: onion powder, salt, and black pepper
  • 2 cod fillets (3-4 oz each)
  • 2 TBS lingonberry jam
  • ¼ tsp red wine vinegar
  • 1½ TBS grainy Dijon mustard
  • 1 garlic clove, minced
  • 1 TBS each: white wine vinegar and olive oil
  • 1 small cucumber, sliced
  • Additional dill, for garnish
Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 400 F.
  2. In a rice cooker, combine wheat berries and water. Cook until the liquid is absorbed. (Alternatively, you can do this on the stove top)
  3. Meanwhile, combine 2 tsp fresh dill with ½ tsp olive oil, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Spread over the cod fillets and bake in the preheated oven for 10 minutes, or until the fish is opaque and flaky.
  4. Mix together lingonberry jam with red wine vinegar. Set aside.
  5. Mix together Dijon with garlic, white wine vinegar and olive oil. Set aside.
  6. Fill bowls with wheat berries, cod and cucumber slices. Add a dollop of the lingonberry mixture to the center, and drizzle the outside with Dijon sauce. Garnish with additional fresh dill.
Notes
The wheat berries will take about 45 minutes to cook. This is enough time for all your other prep and to cook the fish. If you want to speed things up, try a faster cooking grain.
