Lemon Cod with Basil Bean Mash
Ingredients
2 small bunches cherry tomatoes, on the vine
1 tbsp olive oil
chunks skinless cod or other white fish fillet
zest of 1 lemon
juice of 1/2 lemon
240g pack frozen soya beans
1 garlic clove
bunch basil, leaves and stalks separated
100 ml chicken or vegetable stock
Method
Heat oven to 200C/fan or 180C/gas.
Put the tomatoes onto a baking tray, rub with a little oil and some seasoning, then roast for 5 mins until the skins are starting to split.
Add the fish to the tray, top with most of the lemon zest and some more teasing, then drizzle with a little more oil.
Roast for 8-10 minutes until the fish flakes easily.
Meanwhile, cook the beans in a pan of boiling water for 3 minutes until just tender. Drain, then tip into a food processor with the rest of the oil, garlic, basil stalks, lemon juice and stock, then pulse to a think, slightly rough puree. Season to taste.
Divide the tomatoes and mash between two plates, top with the cod, then scatter with basil leaves and the remaining lemon zest to serve.
