Ingredients

  • 1pcs potato
  • 2clov garlic
  • 10g masala seasoning
  • 30g pepitas
  • 280g basa centre-cut portions
  • 50g baby spinach leaves
  • 130g natural yoghurt
  • 23ml olive oil
  • 5ml red or white wine vinegar
  • 3ml honey

Method

  1. Step 1 — Boil potato
    Peel the potato and cut into 2cm chunks. Crush or finely chop the garlic. Put the potato in a small saucepan, cover with cold salted water and bring to the boil. Cook for 8-9 mins until tender. Drain and return to the pan. Cover the pan and shake it to roughen up the edges of the potato (see Kitchen hack).
  2. Step 2 — Pan-fry potato
    Heat 2 tsp olive oil in a medium deep frypan over high heat. Cook the potato, garlic and half the masala seasoning, stirring, for 5 mins or until golden. Remove the pan from the heat. Season with salt and pepper.
  3. Step 3 — Pan-fry fish
    Meanwhile, put the pepitas in a cold medium frypan over medium heat. Toast, tossing, for 3-4 mins until evenly golden. Remove from the pan. Scatter the remaining masala seasoning over the fish and season with salt and pepper. Heat 2 tsp olive oil in the pan over medium heat. Cook the fish for 3½-4 mins each side until browned and cooked through. Remove pan from heat.
  4. Step 4 — Make spinach salad
    Put 2 tsp olive oil, 1 tsp red wine vinegar and ½ tsp honey in a large bowl, season with salt and pepper and whisk to combine. Add the spinach and pepitas and toss to combine.
  5. Step 5 — Serve up
    Divide the fish, Bombay potatoes and spinach salad among plates. Drizzle with the yoghurt and enjoy!
  6. Step 6 — Kitchen hack
    You don't want to break up the potato pieces too much, you just want to roughen up the edges a little so they get nice and crisp when pan-fried. So give the pan a good shake, but not too hard.
