Cooking instructions

Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.

1.

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7

Cut your potatoes (skins on) into chips

Add the chips to a large baking tray (or two!) with a drizzle of vegetable oil and a generous pinch of salt and give everything a good mix up

Put the tray[s] in the oven for 25-30 min or until the chips are golden and starting to crisp

Step 1
2.

Meanwhile, top, tail and grate your carrot[s] (no need to peel!)

Trim, then slice your spring onion[s] finely

Step 2
3.

Combine your cider vinegar and 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] olive oil in a bowl with a pinch of salt, pepper and sugar

Add your shredded red cabbage, grated carrot and half the sliced spring onion (you'll use the rest later!) to the bowl and give everything a good mix up – this is your red cabbage slaw

Combine your mayo and red chilli relish in a bowl – this is your chilli mayo

Step 3
4.

Combine your ground cuminground smoked paprika, cayenne pepper (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) with 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] black pepper and a very large pinch of salt on a plate

Mix all the spices together – this is your Cajun-style seasoning

Step 4
5.

Pat your basa fillet[s] dry with kitchen paper and then slice in half

Press the halved basa into the Cajun-style seasoning firmly to evenly coat all over

Step 5
6.

Heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of vegetable oil over a medium-high heat

Once hot, add the coated basa halves and cook for 3-4 min on each side or until the basa is cooked through – this is your Cajun-style basa

Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily

Step 6
7.

Cut your ciabatta[s] in half and add them to a baking tray (or two!), cut-side up

Put the tray[s] in the oven for 3-4 min or until warmed through and slightly crispy

Step 7

To serve, spread the warmed ciabatta with the chilli mayo and top with the Cajun-style basa and some of the red cabbage slaw
