Pan Fried Cod Served With Braised Potatoes And Peas Recipes

Steps:

• Heat the sunflower oil in a medium non-stick frying pan. Add the bacon, shallot or onion, and garlic. Cook gently, stirring, for 2 mins, then push to one side of the pan.
• Season the cod with ground black pepper. Fry in the pan for 2 mins, then turn over. Add the peas and stock, and bring to a simmer. Cook over a medium heat for a further 2 mins, then add the lettuce and crème fraîche. Cook for a couple mins more, stirring the vegetables occasionally, until the fish is just cooked and the lettuce has wilted. Serve with bread to mop up the broth.

Steps:

• In a plate add the breadcrumbs and parsley and season with salt and freshly ground pepper and give it a good mix.
• Crack the eggs into a bowl and beat lightly together.
• In a separate bowl, add the flour and season well with salt and pepper.
• Dip a fish fillet first in the flour, then in the egg and, finally, in the breadcrumb mixture and continue with all the fillets.
• Cover and refrigerate the fish for up to 2 hours before cooking.
• To make the braised potatoes with peas, steam the potatoes over a pan of boiling, salted water, covered with a lid, for about 20 minutes until they are tender.
• In a saucepan heat the olive oil with 1 tbsp of butter over a medium heat and fry the onion until soft for about 10 minutes.
• Add the peas and toss well.
• Add the chicken stock, bring to the boil and simmer for 5 minutes.
• Add the potatoes and cook for another 2 minutes.
• Remove from the heat, add the remaining butter, season with salt and freshly ground pepper and stir to combine.
• To fry the fish, heat the olive oil and butter in a large non-stick frying pan over a medium to high heat.
• Put the fish in the pan and cook gently for about 4 minutes on each side, turning once, until lightly golden.
• To serve, pour the braised potatoes and peas in a shallow bowl and sprinkle chopped mint leaves on top and serve the fish on the side.

Steps:

• Make the slaw: In a food processor, shred the cabbage, peeled and cored apple, and carrot. In a large bowl, mix up the mayo, vinegar, mustard, sugar, celery seeds, salt, and pepper to taste. Then throw in the shredded cabbage, carrot, apple, and the sliced scallions. Cover and put it in the fridge.
• Prep the fish: In a medium bowl, whisk egg & milk, add the fish. Let the fish soak in the milk while you prepare the breading. On a plate, mix the flour, breading, cayenne pepper, and a pinch each of salt and pepper.
• To cook: Heat about an inch of oil in a large skillet over med-high heat. Coat the fish in the flour, a nice even coating. Carefully lower the fish into the skillet and fry it until its nice and golden 2 to 4 minutes per side. The fish should break apart easily yet still be moist. Place finished fish on a paper towel lined plate to drain and then for more flavor, season with more salt and pepper.
• Serve with the slaw.
