Cooking instructions

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

1.

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7 then strip your rosemary leaves from their stems and chop finely

Cut your potatoes (skins on) into bite-sized pieces, then add to a baking tray (or two!) with the chopped rosemary, a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper and give everything a good mix up

Put the tray[s] in the oven for 25-30 min or until golden brown and crispy – these are your crispy rosemary potatoes

Step 1
2.

Boil a kettle

Peel and finely chop (or grate) your garlic

Strip your thyme leaves from their stems and chop them finely, discard the stems

Top, tail, peel and cut your carrot[s] into batons

Step 2
3.

Add the carrot batons and chopped thyme to a separate tin foil-lined tray with half the chopped garlic (you'll use the rest for later!) and a drizzle of olive oil

Season with a small pinch of salt and pepper and put the tray in the oven for 15-20 min or until starting to soften

Meanwhile, dissolve your soy sauce, Henderson's Relish and vegetable stock mix in 250ml [325ml] [400ml] boiled water – this is your stock

Step 3
4.

Heat a pot with 15g [25g] [30g] butter over a medium heat and cook for 1 min or until melted

Once melted, add 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] flour and cook for 1 min or until a sandy paste remains

Gradually whisk in the stock and cook for 5-6 min or until thickened – this is your gravy

Step 4
5.

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

Once hot, add your basa fillet[s] with your ground sumac, remaining garlic and a grind of pepper and cook for 3-4 min on each side or until cooked through – this is your garlicky basa

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

Step 5
6.

Chop your dried cranberries and pistachios roughly

Once the carrot batons have softened, transfer them to one side of the baking tray and top with a small knob of butter then sprinkle over 1 tsp [1 1/2 tsp] [2 tsp] sugar

Add your chopped pistachios and chopped cranberries to the other side of the tray and put the tray in the oven for a final 3-4 min or until the pistachios are slightly golden – this is your cranberry & pistachio crumb

Step 6
7.

Once the carrot batons are cooked, wash your spinach, then add to a colander and pour boiled water all over it so that it starts to wilt

Mix the wilted spinach and caramelised carrot batons together – this is your buttery veg

Step 7
8.

Serve the garlicky basa with the cranberry & pistachio crumb sprinkled over the top and the crispy rosemary potatoes and buttery veg to the side

Pour the gravy all over

Enjoy!
