Method

Step 1

Preheat the oven to 220ºC/gas 7.

Step 2

Toss the parboiled chips in 2 tsp oil and season with plenty of black pepper. Spread the chips out on a non-stick baking sheet and cook for 25-30 minutes until golden and tender.

Step 3

Meanwhile, put the fish fillets onto a plate and dredge with flour, making sure they are well coated.

Step 4

Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat and add the remaining tsp of oil, wiping it around the pan with kitchen paper.

Step 5

Shake off any excess flour and carefully lay the fish fillets down in the pan and cook for 3-4 minutes on each side.

Step 6

Heat the peas in a small pan of boiling water, drain then roughly mash. Mix the tartar sauce and yogurt together.

Step 7

Serve fish, chips, peas and tartar sauce with a sprinkle of black pepper, a wedge of lemon and a salad garnish.

Recipe tips

Dredging fish with flour before frying stops the surface of the fish from burning.
For extra flavour you can add seasoning to the flour – just salt and pepper, or spices such as Chinese five spice or smoked paprika.
Use fine chickpea flour for a gluten-free alternative.
