Ingredients

Fries

  • 150g potatoes, cut into chips
  • 1 carrot, cut into chips

Fish

  • 1 pack market fish, cut into strips
  • 1 Tbsp flour
  • 1 egg yolk
  • 1/2 cup panko breadcrumbs
  • Zest of 1/2 lemon

Broccoli Smash

  • 1/4 broccoli, finely diced
  • 1/2 cup frozen peas

To Serve

  • 1 Tbsp picklenaise
  • 1/2 lemon, cut into wedges

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 230°C. Bring a medium pot of salted hot tap water to the boil. Prep & cook chips. Toss chips with a drizzle of oil on a lined oven tray. Season and cook for about 25 minutes, until golden and tender.
  2. Prep fish. Pat fish dry and cut into thick strips. Season and add to a bowl, along with flour and toss to coat. Whisk egg yolk in a second bowl, add fish and toss to coat. Place breadcrumbs, lemon zest and a pinch of salt in a third bowl. Place pieces of fish into the crumbs, turn to coat each piece well and place on a plate or tray.
  3. Prep broccoli smash. Add broccoli and peas to pot of boiling water. Cook for 6-8 minutes, or until soft. Drain well, return to pot and roughly mash with a knob of butter. Season to taste. Cover to keep warm.
  4. Cook fish & prep lemon. Heat a drizzle of oil in a fry-pan on medium heat. Cook fish, in batches, for 2-3 minutes each side (depending on thickness), or until golden and just cooked through. Wipe out pan between batches and add more oil if needed.
  5. Serve fish with chips, broccoli smash, picklenaise and a lemon wedge.
