  • 1 Large frypan

Ingredients

Potatoes

  • 600 g potatoes

Fish

  • 600 g white fish fillets skinless, boneless
  • cup / 54 g cornflour
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 cup / 60 g panko breadcrumbs or gluten-free breadcrumbs
  • 1 tbsp / 1 tbsp olive oil

Peas

  • 2 cups / 280 g frozen peas
  • 1 tbsp / 1 tbsp olive oil

Salad

  • 1 lemon
  • 1 bunch parsley
  • 2 tsp wholegrain mustard
  • 2 tbsp / 2 tbsp mayonnaise
  • 80 g feta cheese

Instructions

Before you start

  1. Bring a steamer pot of hot tap water to the boil.

Cook potatoes

  1. Peel 600 g potatoes and slice any larger ones in half. Add to the steamer pot and cook for 10-12 minutes, until only just tender - don't overcook! Set potatoes aside to cool for a bit before slicing them into rings, about 1cm thick. Reserve the steamer pot with water.

Prep fish

  1. Meanwhile, pat 600 g white fish fillets dry then cut it into bite-sized pieces. Add ⅓ cup cornflour to a plate or shallow bowl and season with salt and pepper. Whisk the 2 eggs in a separate shallow bowl and add 1 cup panko breadcrumbs to a third shallow bowl. Coat the fish bites in the four, then dip into the egg to coat and then firmly press into the breadcrumbs to coat.

Cook peas

  1. When the potatoes are done, bring the reserved steamer pot back to a boil (top up the water if needed). Cook 2 cups frozen peas for 4 minutes or until very tender. Transfer the peas to a large bowl and lightly mash with the 1 tbsp olive oil.

Cook fish

  1. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large frypan on medium-high heat. Cook the fish bites for 2-4 minutes on each side (depending on thickness), or until golden and cooked through.

Make salad

  1. To the large bowl with mushy peas, grate in 1 lemon zest then squeeze in the lemon juice. Roughly chop 1 bunch parsley leaves, discarding the stems. Add 2 tsp wholegrain mustard and 2 tbsp mayonnaise. Stir to combine and season to taste with salt and pepper. Then add the sliced potatoes and crumble in 80 g feta cheese, very gently stir to combine.

To serve

  1. Divide the crispy fish bites with warm mushy peas, potato and feta salad between plates. Use your favourite sauce for dipping the fish!
