Start by marinating the cod fillets by evenly covering them with lemon juice, zest, seasoning and oil, cover and place in the fridge for as long as you have. Next combine all salsa verde ingredients together, ensuring you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve chopped it all as finely as possible (you can use a blender but I prefer it to be hand cut). Make sure you try it and adjust seasoning accordingly. Cover and place in the fridge for the flavours to combine and intensify. Bring to the boil a large pan of water and add in a handful (roughly a third) of the mint leaves plus a sprinkle of salt before adding the potatoes and cooking for 7-10 minutes or until the potatoes become soft. Once the potatoes are cooked drain the water and add in the remaining mint leaves plus the seasoning, a large knob of butter and a glug of oil. Slightly mash with the back of the spoon or fork. Cover to keep warm or let cool and reheat when you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122re ready to serve. Once you\u00e2\u20ac\u2122ve thoroughly washed the spinach add to a pan over a medium heat along with a small amount of seasoning and cover until the leaves wilt. Drain or squeeze out the excess liquid prior to serving. For the cod fillets, place a large frying pan over a medium to high heat and allow to heat up for a minute or so then place the fillets in the pan skin side down (your marinade should be oily enough to ensure the skin doesn\u00e2\u20ac\u2122t stick but if not add a small glug of oil to the skin of the fish along with an extra sprinkle of salt then place face down in the pan). Allow to cook here for around 2-3 minutes until the skin crisps. If the fillets are quite thick transfer to a baking dish and allow to cook on 190 degrees Celsius for a further 3-4 minutes until the fish is cooked through. Once cooked allow to rest under foil for 2-5 minutes before serving.
\nPlate up by starting with the spinach in the centre of the plate followed by the crushed minted new potatoes on top. Place the fillet of cod on the potatoes and finish by adding a generous dollop (or two) of salsa verde.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
