  1. COOK RICE

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Rinse the rice and place in a pot over a medium-high heat. Submerge in 300ml of salted water and pop on a lid. Once boiling, reduce the heat and simmer for 25-30 minutes until most of the water has been absorbed. Mix through the peas and return the lid, remove from the heat and set aside to steam for a further 10 minutes. On completion, drain if necessary and fluff up with a fork.

  2. MAKE THE CRUST & BAKE THE HAKE

    Melt 20g of butter in the microwave or in a small pot. Mix together the grated hard cheese, some lemon zest (to taste), ½ of the chopped parsley, the chopped almonds, melted butter and some pepper to form a crumbly mixture. Pat the hake dry with paper towel and place on a lightly greased baking tray and season to taste. Top with the crumb mixture until evenly coated. Pop in the oven and bake for 15-20 minutes, until cooked through, flakey and golden on the outside.

  3. FRY THE VEGGIES

    Place a pan over medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the diced onion, diced carrot, and diced baby marrow pieces for 4-5 minutes until softened, shifting occasionally. In the final 1-2 minutes, add ½ of the grated garlic and cook until fragrant. Add the sliced piquanté peppers and sauteed vegetables to the cooked rice and peas. Season to taste, cover with a lid and set aside to keep warm until serving.

  4. FLAVOURED BUTTER & FINISHING TOUCHES

    Wipe down the pan if necessary and place over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil and 30g of butter. Once foaming, fry the remaining grated garlic for 1-2 minutes until fragrant. Remove from the heat and add the juice of 1 lemon wedges (carefully, as the butter gets very hot).

  5. PLATE

    Make a bed of the loaded veggie rice. Top with the crumbed hake and drizzle generously with lemon garlic butter. Garnish with the remaining parsley and a lemon wedge. Enjoy!
