Polenta Baked Fish & Sweet Potato Chips
Fish and chips – but with a lighter, brighter, healthier makeover! Swap greasy, deep-fried battered fish for baked lemony polenta crusted basa. With fibre-rich sweet potato chips and lemony 'mushy' peas on the side, it counts as two of your 5-a-day too – delish! (Dairy-free: see our FAQs for details).

Cooking instructions
Instructions for 2 portion recipe.
Preheat the oven to 200°C/ 180°C (fan)/ 425°F/ Gas 7
Cut the sweet potato[es] (skin on) into chips

Add the chips to a large mixing bowl with 1 tbsp [2 tbsp] of olive oil and a generous pinch of salt and give everything a good mix up
Add the oiled chips to a baking tray and put the tray in the oven for 20 min or until the chips are tender and starting to crisp

Meanwhile, boil a kettle
Zest the lemon[s] and cut in half
Combine the polenta with the lemon zest on a plate with a generous pinch of salt and pepper

Coat the basa in the zesty polenta until fully covered
Tip: don't worry if all the polenta doesn't stick!

Lightly grease a baking tray
Add the coated basa fillets to the tray
Put the tray in the oven and cook for 10-12 min or until the fish is cooked and crisp
Tip: your fish is cooked when it turns opaque and flakes easily

Meanwhile, add the garden peas to a pot, cover them with boiling water (just enough to cover them) with a pinch of salt, bring to the boil over a high heat and cook for an initial 3 min
Wash, then pat the spinach dry
After 3 min add the spinach and cook for a further 2 min or until the spinach is wilted and the peas are tender, then drain and return to the pot

Add the juice of 1/2 [1] lemon to the drained peas and spinach
Season generously with salt and pepper
Blitz until smooth with a hand blender – these are your mushy peas

Cut the remaining lemon into wedges
Serve the crispy basa with the sweet potato chips and mushy peas to the side
Garnish with the lemon wedge
Enjoy!
