Categories     Main-course

Time 30m

Yield SERVES 2

Number Of Ingredients 5

8 rashers of higher-welfare smoked pancetta
2 x 150g white fish fillets, such as cod, skin off, pin-boned, from sustainable sources
2 sprigs of fresh rosemary
1x 250g sachet or can of cooked lentils
200g spinach

Steps:

  • 1. Lay out 4 rashers of pancetta, slightly overlapping them. Place a piece of cod on top, generously season with black pepper, then roll and wrap in the pancetta, and repeat. 2. Place in a large non-stick frying pan on a medium heat and cook for 8 minutes, turning occasionally, adding the rosemary for the last 2 minutes. 3. Remove the fish to a plate. Toss the lentils into the pan with 1 tablespoon of red wine vinegar and push to one side to reheat for 1 minute and pick up all that residual flavour, while you quickly wilt the spinach with a splash of water alongside. 4. Taste, season to perfection with sea salt and pepper, and divide both between your plates. 5. Sit the wrapped cod on top of the lentils with the rosemary, and drizzle with 1 teaspoon of extra virgin olive oil. Tips Easy swaps: • I've used cod, but you could absolutely try this method with haddock, pollock, salmon or trout. If you can get to your local fishmonger, why not ask them for a recommendation of what's in season, and at its best? • Smoked streaky bacon or prosciutto would be delicious in place of the pancetta, if that's what you can get your hands on. • The technique of reheating and flavouring the lentils would certainly work with tinned beans or chickpeas, too. • Swap in any leafy greens in place of the spinach.

Time 45m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 thick pieces of cod fillet, about 120g each, from sustainable sources
8 thin slices of higher-welfare pancetta
2 lemons
500 g potatoes
300 g frozen garden peas
½ a fresh red chilli, (optional)
1 small knob of butter
1 splash of milk
½ a bunch of fresh mint, (15g)
60 g rocket
extra virgin olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat your oven to 200°C/400°F/gas 6.
  • Season the cod with sea salt and black pepper, place on an oiled baking tray and lay two slices of pancetta over the top of each fillet.
  • Halve the lemons and place the four lemon halves, cut side down, on the tray next to the fish. Roast in the preheated oven for 10 to 15 minutes, or until the fish flakes easily.
  • Peel and quarter the potatoes and cook until soft in boiling salted water. Meanwhile, cook the peas to packet instructions, then drain and blitz the peas in a food processor (or mash up with a fork if you don't have one).
  • Deseed and finely dice the red chilli, if using.
  • Drain the potatoes and mash with butter, hot milk, salt and pepper, whizzed-up peas and the red chilli if using.
  • Put the rocket in a mixing bowl, pick in the mint leaves and toss together and dress with extra virgin olive oil.
  • Serve each piece of cod on a dollop of pea and potato mash, with a little salad on the side.

Tips:

  • Make sure to use thick-cut pancetta, as this will give the dish a more hearty and flavorful texture.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan when cooking the cod. If you do, the fish will steam rather than fry and won't get a nice crispy crust.
  • Cook the cod until it is just cooked through. Overcooked cod will be dry and tough.
  • Serve the cod with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice.

Conclusion:

Cod in pancetta is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal. The cod is flaky and tender, while the pancetta adds a salty and savory flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
