Servings:

vegetable stock 300grams

basmati rice 500grams

cod or haddock fillet, skinned and cut into large chunks 1handful

parsley, roughly chopped 1

Recommended wine: Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, Pinot Noir

Fish works really well with Pinot Grigio, Gruener Veltliner, and Pinot Noir. Fish is as diverse as wine, so it's hard to pick wines that go with every fish. A crisp white wine, such as a pinot grigio or Grüner Veltliner, will suit any delicately flavored white fish. Meaty, strongly flavored fish such as salmon and tuna can even handle a light red wine, such as a pinot noir. The Alois Lageder Terran Alpina Vigneti delle Dolomiti Pinot Grigio with a 4.2 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 16 dollars per bottle.
