If you don’t have a non-stick frypan, just use a little bit more oil.


Ingredients

MISO SALAD

  • 1 cup frozen peas
  • ½ telegraph cucumber
  • 1 watermelon radish
  • ¼-½ red onion
  • 1 carrot
  • 80g miso dressing
  • ½ bag baby spinach
  • ½-1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1-1½ tsp rice wine vinegar

KATSU FISH

  • 600g market fish
  • 1 egg
  • 80g wholemeal breadcrumbs
  • 2 tsp oil

TO SERVE

  • 80g wasabi aioli

Steps

  1. Bring a small pot of salted water to the boil.
  2. Cook peas in pot of boiling water for 1-2 minutes, until bright green and tender. Drain, rinse under cold water and leave to drain well.
  3. Pat fish dry, remove any remaining scales or bones and season. Cut any larger fillets in half.
  4. Whisk egg in a shallow bowl with a pinch of salt and place breadcrumbs in a second shallow bowl. Dip fish into egg, shaking off excess, then add to breadcrumbs and turn to coat. Set aside.
  5. Heat half the oil in a large, non-stick fry-pan on medium heat. Cook fish, in two batches, for 2-3 minutes each side (depending on thickness), until just cooked through. Reduce heat if crumb starts to burn. Use remaining oil for second batch. Season fish when cooked.
  6. Cut cucumber in half lengthways and thinly slice; dice radish 1cm; very thinly slice onion; grate carrot.
  7. Place chopped veggies in a large bowl, along with cooked peas and all remaining miso salad ingredients. Just before serving, toss well to combine and season to taste.
  8. To serve, divide miso salad between plates. Top with katsu fish and dollop over wasabi aioli.
