Instructions

Boil the Potatoes
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. 

b) Put a large saucepan of water with ½ tsp salt on to boil for the potatoes

c) Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peel first if you prefer). 

d) When boiling, add the potatoes to the water and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 15-20 mins. 

Get Prepped
2

a) Meanwhile, roughly chop the parsley (stalks and all). 

b) Trim the green beans.

c) Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).

d) Zest and halve the lime (see ingredients for amount).

Bake the Basa
3

a) Pat the basa dry with kitchen paper and lay on a lined baking tray. 

b) Sprinkle on half the Cajun spice mix (add less if you'd prefer things milder).

c) Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil. Rub the flavourings into the fish.

d) When the oven is hot, bake the fish on the middle shelf until cooked, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish. The fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.

Make the Gremolata
4

a) Meanwhile, put the remaining Cajun spice mix into a small bowl.

b) Add the lime zest, then squeeze in some lime juice.

c) Season with salt, then mix in half the parsley and the olive oil for the dressing (see pantry for amount). Set aside. 

Cook the Veg
5

a) Heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. 

b) Once hot, add the green beans. Stir-fry, 2-3 mins, then add the garlic and cook for 1 min more.

c) Add a splash of water, then cover with a lid and allow to cook until the veg is tender, 2-3 mins. Stir in the peas. Cook until piping hot, 1 min.

Finish and Serve
6

a) Once the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pan, off the heat.

b) Add a splash of milk and a knob of butter (if you have any) and mash until smooth. Stir through the remaining parsley, then season to taste with salt and pepper.

c) Share the mash between your bowls, then top with the beans, peas and basa. Finish with the gremolata.

Enjoy!
