ROAST
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the drained Chickpeas and the onion wedges on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast until golden and crispy, 15-20 minutes.
HAKE
Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the hake dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the hake, skin-side down, until crispy, 3-4 minutes. Flip and fry the other side until cooked through, 3-4 minutes. In the final 30-60 seconds, baste with a knob of butter and the NOMU rub. Remove from the pan and season.
CREAMY GREEN SAUCE
Return the pan, wiped down, to medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter. When hot, fry the Peas and the grated garlic until fragrant, 1-2 minutes. Remove from the pan and add to the blender along with the sour cream and 50ml of water. Pulse until a smooth sauce. Remove from the blender, season, and set aside. (Alternatively: Add the garlicky peas and the sour cream to a bowl. Mash with a fork or a potato masher until combined. Loosen with 50ml of water, mix to combine and season).
