  1. ROAST VEG WEDGES

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread the carrot pieces on a roasting tray. Coat in oil and season. Roast in the hot oven until golden, 25-30 minutes (shifting halfway). At the halfway mark, coat the onion wedges in oil and season. Roast for the remaining time.

  2. PARSLEY CRUMB

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with 10g of butter. When hot, fry the fish crumb until beginning to brown, 1-2 minutes (shifting occasionally). Toss through ½ the chopped parsley and seasoning. Remove from the pan and set aside.

  3. CRÈMED SPINACH

    Return the pan, wiped down, to medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion until soft, 3-4 minutes (shifting occasionally). Add the grated garlic and fry until fragrant, 30-60 seconds (shifting constantly). Add the crème fraîche, the shredded spinach, and 50ml of warm water. Reduce the heat and simmer until starting to thicken, 3-4 minutes. If it’s too thick for your liking, loosen with an extra splash of water. Remove and season.

  4. FRY UP

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil and a knob of butter (optional). 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. Remove from the pan and season.

  5. DIVE IN!

    Serve the roasted carrot & onion alongside the golden hake topped with the herby crumb. Side with the creamed spinach. Scatter over the remaining parsley. Cheers, Chef!
