ROAST THE CARROTS
Preheat the oven to 200°C. Spread out the Carrot wedges on a roasting tray, coat in oil, and season. Roast in the hot oven for 30-35 minutes until cooked through and becoming crispy, shifting halfway.
TOASTY, FLAKY ALMONDS
Place the Flaked Almonds in a pan over a medium heat. Toast for 3-5 minutes until golden-brown, shifting occasionally. Remove from the pan on completion and set aside to cool. Once cool enough to handle, roughly chop or crush using a pestle and mortar until a chunky crumb.
ALMOND-CRUSTED HAKE
Weigh out 20g of butter and place in a bowl. Melt in the microwave or oven until just soft enough to smear. Be careful not to melt completely. Mix in the grated Italian-stlye hard cheese, the crushed almonds, three-quarters of the chopped parsley, and some Lemon zest to taste. Place the Fish/" title="View all our recipes with Fish at eCook">Fish/hake-fillet/" title="View all our recipes with Hake Fillet at eCook">Hake Fillet skin-side down on a lightly greased baking tray. Pat dry with some paper towel and season to taste. Cover the top in the almond crust, patting it into the flesh until evenly coated. Bake in the oven for 18-20 minutes until cooked through and crispy on the outside. Don’t worry if some crust falls off during the cooking process.
GARLICKY Spinach
Return the pan to a medium heat with a drizzle of oil or knob of butter. When hot, fry the grated garlic for 30-60 seconds until fragrant, shifting frequently. Add the shredded Spinach and sauté for 1-2 minutes until wilted. On completion, season to taste and remove the pan from the heat.
FINISH UP
Once the carrots are roasted, toss through some Lemon zest and the juice of 1 lemon wedge.
