Ama-where? Ama-who? Well, we Americans often replace “amandine” with “almondine,” which gives you a big clue as to what sliced, joyful nut is garnishing this delicate morsel of cod. And not alone, for these almonds are cooked in brown butter and lemon, adding a perfect rich tartness to the fish. This meal is rounded out by a wild rice and carrot melody that adds a bit of bulk to what is lighter than air. Ama-what? Ama I glad I ordered this meal!
