  • 450g fish fillets
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • Zest of ½ lemon (optional, adults)

  • 1 tablespoon olive oil
  • 1 head broccoli, stalk included

Steps

  1. oven to 220°C. Line two oven trays with baking paper.
  2. Toss potato rounds on first prepared tray with first measure of oil. Season well with salt and pepper and roast for 25–30 minutes, or until golden and tender. Turn halfway to ensure even cooking.
  3. Pat fish dry with paper towels and remove any remaining scales or bones. Place on second prepared tray. Drizzle over second measure of oil and season with salt and pepper. Sprinkle over lemon zest and chopped parsley (if using). Set aside.
  4. Thinly slice leek. Heat oil in a large pot on medium heat. Cook leek with a pinch of salt for about 5 minutes, or until softened. Finely chop broccoli (head and stalk) and add to pot with leek to cook for a further 5 minutes.
  5. Stir through cream and reduce heat to low. Cook for about 2 minutes, or until cream reduces and lightly coats vegetables. Stir through parsley and season with salt and pepper.
  6. Bake fish for 4–5 minutes, or until just cooked through, depending on thickness.
  7. Divide roasted potato rounds and creamed vegetables between plates and top with fish and a wedge of lemon to squeeze over just before eating.
