Ingredients

Fish

  • 2 skinless cod fillets (about 140 g each)
  • 1 tbsp white miso
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1 tsp soy sauce

Greens

  • 250 g tenderstem broccoli or pak choi
  • 1 tsp sesame oil
  • 1 garlic clove, sliced
  • 1 tsp sesame seeds

Method

  1. Make the glaze. Mix the miso, honey and soy sauce. Heat the grill to high.
  2. Grill the fish. Put the cod on a lined tray, spread with the glaze and grill for 8–10 minutes until it flakes easily.
  3. Cook the greens. Meanwhile, stir-fry the greens in the sesame oil with the garlic and a splash of water for 4 minutes.
  4. Serve. Serve the fish on the greens with the sesame seeds scattered over.

Chef tip

Line the tray with foil. The glaze sticks as it caramelises.

Storage

Best eaten fresh.
