A Seasonal Sunny Favourite

May 6, 2016 Leave a Comment

 baked cod and salsa verde 

May is usually the first time of the year when we enjoy the beginnings of the new potato crop. Just one or two of these little beauties cooked with cherry tomatoes, herbs and a hint of mustard make the perfect meal with a white fish fillet like cod (although feel free to use other fish fillets) or a tender breast of chicken.  This is perfect as a meal for friends served outdoors in

the sunshine – so ideal for this weekend.

 

Jersey Royal Potatoes

 

BAKED COD SALSA VERDE

Ingredients

METRIC/US

300 g/11 oz baby new potatoes, scrubbed

low-fat cooking spray or mist

200 g/7 oz cherry tomatoes, halved

500 g/1 lb skinless and boneless cod fillets (4 fillets)

2 tsp Dijon mustard

4 thin slices lemon

salt and freshly ground black pepper

25 g/1 oz flat-leaf parsley

1 clove garlic, peeled

2 tsp capers, drained and rinsed

6 anchovy fillets, roughly chopped

2 tbsp lemon juice

 

Method

  1.  Preheat the oven to 220 C/425 F/gas 7.
  2.  Place the potatoes in a pan of boiling water, return to the boil and cook for 10-12 minutes until tender then drain and slice.
  3.  Generously spritz an ovenproof dish with low-fat cooking spray or mist. Add the potatoes and halved tomatoes in a single layer.
  4.  Spread the cod fillets thinly with half of the mustard and press a lemon slice on the top of each. Place on top of the vegetables and spritz again lightly with low-fat cooking spray or mist. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
  5.  Bake in the oven for 15-20 minutes until cooked through.
  6.  Meanwhile, to make the salsa verde, place the parsley, garlic, capers and anchovies (with their oil) in a small food processor and pulse until coarsely chopped. Add the remaining mustard, lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Pulse once or twice until just blended.
  7.  To serve, divide the fish and vegetables between warmed serving plates, spoon over a little salsa and serve the rest on the side.
