Pan-Fried Tilapia

with (Your Favourite) Tarragon Sauce

As you know we send out a questionnaire every week to see how you enjoyed your recipes. Renee (our menu planning guru) sits down with Patrick every Tuesday to give him the low-down and from there we plan the weeks to come. Recently we noticed a huge spike in popularity for fresh tarragon, hence the inspiration for tonight’s delicious dinner!

Instructions

1

Boil a large pot of water with ½ tsp of salt. Scrub the new potatoes but keep the nutritious skins on. Cut them into quarters and boil for 10-15 mins. Tip: They’re cooked when you can insert a knife into them and they slip off easily.

Finely chop the greens beans
2

Cut the very tops and bottoms off your green beans. Pick the leaves from the tarragon (you’ll need about ½ tbsp) and finely chop. Boil another pot of water with ¼ tsp of salt. Tip: Wait to cook the green beans until after the fish.

3

Pat the tilapia fillets dry with a little kitchen paper. Tip: For a crispy fish fillet, dip the fish into a little plain flour (if you have some) on each side. Season the fish with a pinch of salt and pepper.

Fry the fish fillets
4

Heat ½ tbsp of oil in a large pan on medium-high heat. Once the pan is hot, add the fish. Fry on the first side for 4-5 mins without moving the fillet (as this will give you a crispy skin). Turn the fillets over and cook for 1 minute and then take out of the pan and keep them warm. Tip: Keep the pan aside for the sauce.

5

Cook the green beans in the boiling water for 4 mins and drain. Dissolve half the vegetable stock pot in 150ml of water, ready for the sauce.

Add the crème fraîche to the pan, with the tarragon
6

Wipe any excess oil from the pan, add the stock to the empty fish pan on medium-high heat and allow to reduce by a third. Remove from the heat and add 3 tbsp of crème fraîche. Give it all a good stir and add the chopped tarragon. Taste for seasoning and add more salt and pepper to your liking.

Lightly crush the potatoes with the back of a fork
7

When your potatoes are cooked, drain and lightly crush them with the back of a fork. For that decadent finish toss them in 1 tsp of butter (if you have some) and a pinch of salt and pepper.

8

Divide your crushed new potatoes and green beans between your plates. Top with the tilapia fillet and the tarragon sauce.
