Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 [for 3] [for 4] portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7
Chop your potatoes (skins on) into bite-sized pieces
Deseed your pepper[s] (scrape the seeds and pith out with a teaspoon) and dice
Add 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] olive oil to a bowl with your ground smoked paprika, ground coriander and a generous pinch of salt and pepper

Add the chopped potatoes and diced pepper to the bowl and give everything a good mix up
Transfer the spiced potatoes & pepper to a baking paper-lined baking tray (or two!) and reserve the bowl along with any excess marinade
Put the tray[s] in the oven for 25 min or until the potatoes are crispy and the pepper is slightly charred

Meanwhile, peel and finely chop (or grate) half your garlic (you'll use the rest later!)
Chop your tomato[es] finely
Zest half your lime[s] (try to grate lightly with a micro-plane or sharp box grater and avoid grating the white pith, as this is very bitter)
Trim, then slice your spring onion[s]

Add the chopped garlic and chopped tomato to the reserved bowl with your red wine vinegar
Add the lime zest and half the sliced spring onion (reserve the rest for a garnish!) and give everything a good mix up – this is your tomato salsa

Peel and finely slice (don't chop!) the remaining garlic
Cut the zested lime[s] into 2 wedges per person

Once the potatoes and pepper are almost ready, heat a large, wide-based pan (preferably non-stick) with a generous drizzle of olive oil over a high heat
Pat your cod fillet[s] dry with kitchen paper
Once hot, add the sliced garlic, your chilli flakes (can't handle the heat? Go easy!) and 2 tbsp [3 tbsp] [4 tbsp] butter and cook for 1 min or until fragrant

Once fragrant, add the cod fillet[s] to the pan with the juice of half the lime wedges
Cook for 4-5 min on each side or until cooked through – this is your chilli-lime cod
Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily

Serve the charred pepper & roast potatoes with the tomato salsa to the side, and top with the chilli-lime cod
Drizzle over any pan sauce and garnish with a remaining lime wedge and remaining sliced spring onion
Enjoy!
