Cooking Instructions and Tips

Boil the Potatoes
1

a) Preheat your oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas mark 7. Put a large saucepan of water with ½ tsp salt on to boil for the potatoes. 

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

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

Prep the Veg
2

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

b) Trim the green beans. Halve any thick broccoli stems lengthways.

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

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

Season the Basa
3

a) Pat the basa dry with kitchen paper. Lay the fish on a lined baking tray. Sprinkle half the roasted herb and spice blend onto the basa (add less if you'd prefer things milder).

b) Season with salt and pepper and drizzle with oil. Rub the flavourings into the fish. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish

Make the Gremolata
4

a) Put the remaining roasted herb and spice blend into a small bowl.

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

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

Get Cooking
5

a) When the oven is hot, bake the fish on the middle shelf until cooked, 10-12 mins. IMPORTANT: The fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.

b) Meanwhile, heat a drizzle of oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat. 

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

d) Add a splash of water, then cover with a lid and allow to cook until the veg is tender, 2-3 mins.

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, broccoli and basa. Finish with the gremolata.
