  1. BUTTERY POTATOES

    Boil the kettle. Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the baby potatoes in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until easily pierced with a fork but still firm, 10-15 minutes. Drain and place back in the pot, toss with a knob of butter, seasoning and ½ the dill. Cover to keep warm until serving.

  2. GRAB YOUR COAT

    Pat the hake chunks dry with a paper towel. Whisk 1 egg in a bowl. Prepare two shallow dishes: one containing the flour (seasoned lightly), and one containing the crumb. Coat the Fish in the seasoned flour, dusting off any excess flour. Coat in the whisked egg, and lastly the crumb. Repeat this step with each piece of fish. Set aside.

  3. Peas & SAUCE

    In a bowl, loosen the pesto with olive oil until a drizzling consistency. Submerge the Peas in boiling water until plump and heated through, 2-3 minutes. Drain and add to the bowl with the loosened pesto. Mix in ½ the lemon juice (to taste) and season. Mash the pesto peas with a potato masher or fork and set aside. In a small bowl, combine the remaining dill, the yoghurt, the remaining lemon juice (to taste) and seasoning.

  4. Fish TO FRY

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with enough oil to cover the base. Fry the crumbed Fish chunks until golden and cooked through, 2-3 minutes per side. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel.

  5. PLATE IT UP!

    Plate the crispy Fish bites. Side with the buttery baby potatoes and the pesto peas. Serve with the creamy tangy dill sauce for dipping. Enjoy, Chef!
