Low Fat Fish and Chips

Fish is best when it is fresh and cooked simply. Here’s a variation on classic fish and chips with a fraction of the fat.

Heat the oven to 200C/400F/gas mark 6 and cut some medium-sized potatoes lengthways, each into 4 long wedges (leave the skin on). Brush or spray with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt. Use a pump spray bottle for oil as it coats lightly and evenly. Bake for 30-35 minutes.

Meanwhile, in a small bowl mix 4-5 tbsp fresh breadcrumbs, grated zest and juice of a lemon, some chopped fresh herbs (parsley, chives or dill), 1 tsp Dijon mustard and season with salt and pepper.

Lay the fish (use cod, haddock or any white fish) on a baking sheet and cover with the mixture. Place the fish on the top shelf over the potatoes and bake for 15-20 minutes. The top should be crispy and the fish just done inside.
