Cooking instructions

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

1.

Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7 and boil a kettle

Chop your potato[es] (skins on) into large, bite-sized pieces, then add them to a pot of plenty of boiled water with a pinch of salt and bring to the boil over a high heat

Once boiling, cook for 12-15 min or until fork-tender, then drain and return to the pot

Step 1
2.

Add your diced pollock (unevenly sized pollock bites? Chop any larger ones into bite-sized pieces!) to a tin foil-lined baking tray with your curry powder, a small pinch of salt and a drizzle of vegetable oil and give everything a good mix up

Put the tray in the oven for 10-12 min or until the pollock is cooked through

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

Once cooked, flake the cooked pollock roughly with a fork and reserve the tray

Step 2
3.

While the fish is cooking, add your panko breadcrumbs and ground turmeric to a plate with a small pinch of salt and a generous drizzle of vegetable oil and mix it all together

Once the potatoes are fork-tender, mash them until smooth

Add the flaked pollock to the mashed potatoes with half your soy sauce (save the rest for later!), a pinch of salt and 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] olive oil

Gently mix it all together – this is your fishcake mix

Step 3
4.

Divide the fishcake mix into 2 per person and shape into fishcakes (clean hands is the best way!

Press the fishcakes into the panko breadcrumb mixture firmly to evenly coat

Step 4
5.

Add the coated fishcakes to the reserved tray

Put the tray in the oven for 15-20 min or until golden and crispy – these are your spiced fishcakes

Step 5
6.

Meanwhile, combine the remaining soy sauce and tamarind paste in a bowl with your red chilli relish and half your rice vinegar (save the rest for later!)

Give everything a good mix up – this is your tamarind sauce

Step 6
7.

Chop your roasted peanuts finely

Wash your lettuce, then pat it dry with kitchen paper and shred finely

Combine your carrot & cabbage slaw mix and shredded lettuce in a bowl with the chopped peanuts, the remaining rice vinegar, a pinch of salt and sugar and 1 tbsp [1 1/2 tbsp] [2 tbsp] olive oil and toss – this is your peanut salad

Step 7
8.

Serve the spiced fishcakes with the peanut salad and tamarind sauce on the side

Enjoy!
