Cooking Steps

Cook the Chips
1
  • Preheat your oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
  • Chop the potatoes lengthways into 1cm slices, then chop into 1cm chips (peeling optional).
  • Pop the chips onto a large (lined) baking tray. Drizzle with oil, season well with salt and pepper, then toss to coat. Spread out in a single layer.
  • When the oven is hot, bake on the top shelf until golden, 25-30 mins. Turn halfway through.

TIP: Use two baking trays if necessary.

Bake the Hake
2
  • Quarter and peel the onion, then separate the layers. 
  • Pat the hake with kitchen paper to remove excess moisture.
  • Lay the hake onto a separate lined baking tray and pop the onion alongside. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw fish. Fish is cooked when opaque in the middle. 
  • Drizzle fish and onion with oil and season with salt and pepper.
  • Pop in the oven and bake until cooked through, 10-15 mins.
Assemble the Sauce
3
  • Finely chop the parsley (stalks and all).
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press). 
  • To make the chimichurri dressing, in a small bowl mix together parsley, garlic and red wine vinegar with 4 tbsp oil (per 2P) and ¼ tsp salt (per 2P). Season with pepper and mix until combined.
  • Halve the avocado and remove the pit. Chop into chunks.
  • Just before serving, toss the avo and salad leaves with salt, pepper and a drizzle of oil.
Finish and Serve
4
  • Divide the hake, onion and chips between plates.
  • Drizzle the chimichurri dressing over the fish.
  • Serve the salad alongside.
