Instructions
1
- Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
- Chop the potatoes into 2cm chunks (no need to peel) and pop onto a lined baking tray.
- Drizzle with oil, season with salt and pepper then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
- When the oven is hot, roast on the top shelf until golden, 25-35 mins. Turn the tray halfway through.
TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.
2
- Meanwhile, roughly chop the chives (use scissors if you prefer).
- Zest half the lemon (double for 4p) then cut into thick wedges.
- Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
- Trim the green beans.
3
- Place a large pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
- Once hot, fry the green beans until starting to char, 2-3 mins.
- Add a splash of water and immediately cover with a lid or some foil.
- Cook until the green beans are tender, 4-5 mins.
- Remove from the pan and cover to keep warm.
4
- Return the pan to medium-high heat with 1 tbsp butter (double for 4p) and a drizzle of oil.
- Season the fish with salt and pepper.
- Once the butter is melted carefully place the hake into the pan. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw fish.
- Fry until cooked through, 4-5 mins on each side.
5
- Add the chives and garlic to the pan and squeeze in the juice of half a lemon (double for 4p).
- Continuously spoon the butter over the fish for 1-2 mins, then remove from the heat. IMPORTANT: Fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.
6
- When ready, plate up the hake with the green beans and potatoes alongside.
- Spoon the melted chive butter from the pan over the fish and sprinkle with the lemon zest to finish.
- Serve the aioli and any remaining lemon wedges alongside.
