  1. POTATO MASH

    Place the potato pieces in a pot of salted water. Bring to a boil and cook until soft, 15-20 minutes. Drain and return to the pot. Add a knob of butter (optional) and a splash of water or milk (optional). Mash with a fork, season, and cover.

  2. MAKE THE MARINADE

    Melt 30g of butter in a small pot over medium heat. Add the lemon zest (to taste), a generous squeeze of lemon juice, the apricot & soy sauce, the grated garlic, ½ the chopped dill, and seasoning. Bring to a simmer, 2-3 minutes (stirring occasionally). Remove from the heat and set aside.

  3. JUICY FISH

    Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil. Pat the fish dry with paper towel. When hot, fry the fish until golden, 3-4 minutes per side. Working quickly, use a pastry brush to coat the flesh side of the fish with some of the marinade. Flip and fry the flesh side until cooked through, 30-60 seconds. Remove from the pan and season. Loosen the remaining marinade with warm water in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency.

  4. CRUNCHY SALAD

    In a salad bowl, loosen the mustard with a splash of water and olive oil in 5ml increments until drizzling consistency. Add a sweetener and seasoning. Mix to combine. Toss through the rinsed leaves, the sliced celery, and the apple slices. Set aside.

  5. GRAB THE PLATES

    Dish up a heap of the potato mash and top with the pan-fried fish. Drizzle over the remaining marinade. Side with the dressed apple & celery salad, and garnish with the remaining dill and lemon wedges. Dive in, Chef!
