Cod with Walnut Crust,Garlic Buttered New Potatoes,Carrots,and Sea Food Creamy Sauce

This week I would like to show how to make a tasty fish dish, perfect not only for 'Fish Friday' but any day of the week.

As always, at first glance this may look complicated, but I promise you that if you follow my straight forward steps you will be surprised at how easy it is to produce this beautiful looking dessert.

Ingredients for Two

2 fillet of cod

1 small onion finely diced 

2 slices of dry bread

1 garlic clove fine

50g cracked walnuts

100ml milk

100ml double cream

50ml white wine

4 new potatoes

1 carrot 

2 radish

Sea Food Mix ( prawns,mussels and cockles) 

50g butter

Coriander chopped finely

The zest and juice of 1 lime

1 tbsp olive oil

Method

1. First make the crust. Place the dry bread into the first bowl and pour the milk into it.
In the second bowl mix the onion, half of the garlic, walnuts, coriander, a bit of the lime juice, zest and oil.
Drain the bread and add it to the mixer; mix well and leave it on the side.

2. Put the new potatoes to boil for few minutes until they are in half cooked.

3. Mix half of the butter with the remaining crushed garlic and add a pinch of coriander.

4. Slice the potatoes, but not all the way through---maybe two thirds of the way---place the garlic butter mixture between the slices and put them into the hot oven.

5. Place the fillet of fish onto a slice of kitchen paper to drain. Season with salt, black pepper and sprinkle with lime juice.

Place the crust mixer between the two fillets, butter a baking tray and place the fish on it and put it into the oven for 15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked.

6. While the fish is cooking take a vegetable peeler and cut the carrot into ribbons. Drop a nob of butter into a hot frying pan and place the carrot ribbons in to saute for 2 - 3 minutes.

7. By now the new potatoes should be ready to take out of the oven and place on the side

8. To do the sauce, pour the wine into a small pan and boil for 30 seconds, add the cream, salt, black pepper, remaining lime juice and the seafood mix then cook for 2 minutes.

Arranging the dish

Pour the sauce in the middle of the plate. Very gently place the fish on top of the sauce, then arrange the potatoes, carrots and the slices of radish. 
For a fresh taste sprinkle some very finely chopped spring onion.
