Instructions
Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7.
Bring a large saucepan of water with 0.5 tsp salt on to boil for the potatoes.
Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (peel first if you prefer). Halve any thick broccoli stems lengthways.
Halve, peel and thinly slice the shallot. Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
Roughly chop the chives (use scissors if easier).
When your pan of water is boiling, add the potato chunks and cook until you can easily slip a knife through, 15-20 mins.
Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a medium frying pan on medium-high heat.
Once hot, add the Tenderstem® and stir-fry for 2-3 mins. Add a splash of water, then cover with a lid (or foil) and allow to cook until tender, 4-6 mins more. Season with salt and pepper.
Transfer the broccoli to a plate, and cover it with foil to keep warm. Wipe out the pan.
Meanwhile, pop the breadcrumbs, olive oil for the crumb (see pantry for amount), and half the garlic into a small bowl and mix together.
Lay the basa onto a lined baking tray. Rub the lemon and herb seasoning into the fish.
Spoon the crumb evenly over the fish, pressing it down with the back of the spoon.
Pop the basa on the top shelf of your oven and cook until the fish is cooked through, 12-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish. It's cooked when opaque in the middle.
Meanwhile, return the (now empty) frying pan to medium heat.
Once hot, add the shallot and stir-fry until softened, 3-4 mins. Stir in the remaining garlic and cook for 1 min more.
Add the cider vinegar and allow it to evaporate, 1-2 mins.
Pour in the water for the sauce (see pantry for amount) and veg stock paste, then bring to the boil and simmer until reduced by half, 2-3 mins. Vigorously stir in the butter for the sauce (see pantry for amount) until melted, then take off the heat. Stir through the chives.
Once the potatoes are cooked, drain in a colander and return to the pan, off the heat. Add a knob of butter and a splash of milk (if you have any) and mash until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Serve the crusted basa with the mash and broccoli alongside, then spoon over the buttery sauce to finish.
Enjoy!
