Method

  1. Start the potatoes in boiling water and simmer for 15–18 minutes, until tender.
  2. Meanwhile, pat the thawed fish dry, check for bones and cut it into fingers about 2cm thick.
  3. Set out the flour, beaten eggs and breadcrumbs in separate dishes and coat the fish in that order, shaking off the excess flour.
  4. Heat the oil in a large frying pan and fry the goujons in batches for 6–8 minutes, turning, until golden and the fish flakes easily. Keep each batch warm.
  5. Cook the peas to the packet instructions, usually 3–4 minutes.
  6. Drain the potatoes and toss them with the butter.
  7. Serve the goujons with the potatoes, peas and lemon wedges.
Tip: The timing assumes thawed fish, so defrost frozen fillets in the fridge beforehand, following the pack.
