Tip

Want a side dish?
For a potato side dish, steam new potatoes in their skins until tender. Drain, crush with a fork, then mix with 1 heaped tsp wholegrain mustard, a drizzle of olive oil and some seasoning.

Method

  1. Heat oven to 190C/fan 170C/gas 5. Tear the bread into pieces and put in a food processor with the parsley and lemon zest. Blitz to make rough crumbs.

  2. Lightly oil a shallow baking dish, then add the cod in one layer. Lightly brush the fish with oil, then press on the crumbs. Bake for 10-12 mins. Meanwhile, steam the vegetables until just tender, then toss in the remaining oil, mustard and lemon juice. Serve alongside the fish.
