  1. SPECIAL O’CAJUN

    Preheat the oven to 200°C. Place the potato wedges on a roasting tray with a drizzle of oil, some seasoning, and the cajun rub. Spread out in a single layer and roast in the oven for 30-35 minutes until crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, shifting halfway.

  2. ZINGY LOADED SLAW & MAYO

    In a bowl, place the shredded cabbage and julienne carrot, sliced radishes, ½ of the chopped mint, lemon juice to taste, and some seasoning. Toss until combined. In a small bowl, loosen the mayo with a splash of water. Season and set both aside for serving.

  3. MINTY PEAS

    Place a pan over a medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Once hot, fry the peas for 2-3 minutes until heated through. On completion, remove from the heat, stir through the remaining chopped mint and ½ of the seafood rub, and season to taste. Cover to keep warm and set aside until serving.

  4. GETTING FISHY...

    Pat the hake dry with paper towel, coat with oil, the remaining seafood rub and season to taste. Place a clean pan over a medium heat with a drizzle of oil. When hot, fry the hake skin-side down for 3-4 minutes until crispy and golden. Flip and fry for another 2-3 minutes until sealed. During the final 1-2 minutes, baste with a knob of butter (optional), some zest, and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Once cooked through and fragrant, remove from the heat.

  5. HEARTY BRITISH FEAST!

    Plate the golden cajun chips, the grilled hake, zingy slaw and minty peas alongside one another. Serve with a dollop of garlicky mayo for dipping and lemon wedges on the side. Well done, Chef!
