Method

  1. Place the fish fillets in a large microwavable dish (with a close-fitting lid), season with salt and freshly ground pepper, sprinkle with a little of the lemon zest and a squeeze of juice, then cover with lid.
  2. Boil the potatoes until cooked (about 15 mins). Add peas, allow to come back to the boil, then drain.
  3. Fry the spring onions in 1tsp oil for a few minutes over a medium heat until lightly browned. Microwave the fish on high power for 3-5 mins.
  4. Blend the crème fraîche with a little olive oil and the wholegrain mustard. Add a little of the lemon zest and squeeze of juice, then add in the potatoes, peas and fried onions. Mix thoroughly and serve straightaway with the fish flaked on top.
