Chips
- 2 medium potatoes (approx. 300g)
- ½ tbsp vegetable oil
- ½ tsp paprika
Fish
- 2 cod loins (approx. 280g)
- 15g plain flour
- Freshly ground black pepper
- 1 small egg, beaten
- 1 slice seeded bread (approx. 50g)
- ½ tsp mixed herbs
- 1 lemon
Minty peas
- 160g frozen peas
- 20g Flora Lighter
- Handful fresh mint
- Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C Fan/Gas mark 7.
- Blitz the bread in a food processor to make breadcrumbs.
- Spread the breadcrumbs out on a baking tray and put into the oven for 5 minutes.
- Chop the potatoes into wedges, leaving the skin on for extra fibre and taste.
- Place them in a bowl with the oil and the paprika and give them a good shake. Place the wedges on the baking tray and put into the oven for 30 minutes.
- Remove the breadcrumbs from the oven, putting them onto a shallow bowl. Add the zest of half a lemon and the mixed herbs into the breadcrumbs and mix.
- Next prepare the fish. Put the flour onto a plate and season with black pepper. Break the egg into a shallow bowl.
- Coat each cod fillet on all sides in the flour, followed by egg and then the breadcrumbs, then place the fillets on a baking tray.
- Put into the oven for approximately 20 minutes. Turn the wedges.
- While the fish and chips are cooking, prepare the minty peas. Cook the peas as per packet instructions. Smash together with the Flora Lighter and chopped mint – you can do this with a fork or a masher, leaving them chunky.
- Check the fish is thoroughly cooked through and piping hot and the chips are golden and crisp.
- Serve with the minty peas and lemon wedges.
