Ingredients
  

  • 2 fillets Salmon
  • 2 fillets Cod (or other firm white fish)
  • 1 package pine kernels
  • 3-4 slices good quality bread
  • 1 small tub Cream
  • 1 clove garlic
  • 1 sprig Thyme
  • 8 small new potatoes

Instructions
 

  • I like to put the fish fillets in a little bit of brine to make sure they are not so waterlogged, especially if they’re not fresh or frozen.
  • So just cover them all with water and two generous pinches of sea salt and let them infuse for 30 minutes.
  • Take them out and pat them dry with some kitchen towel. Cut into generous chunks.
  • While the fish is in it’s brine peel the new potatoes and boil them for about 15 minutes, or until nice and waxy.
  • Cover and set potatoes aside to keep warm.
  • You can get started on the crumble mix while the potatoes are boiling. Toast your slices of bread until nice and crispy all over, then crumble into small morsels.
  • Chop your garlic clove and de-stem the thyme.
  • Add a generous glug of olive oil to your pan and start frying the pine kernels with the garlic and thyme.
  • Add the breadcrumbs and roast it all until golden brown.
  • Season with salt and pepper. Leave on a very low heat to keep warm.
  • Fry the fish pieces in a 1 tablespoon of olive oil and a knob of butter – just until they are browned on both sides. Turn them carefully to try to stop them from falling apart.
  • Add some cream to the fish to make a sauce with the juices. Season with salt.
  • Plate up the fish with some sauce, arrange the new potatoes around the dish and then pour over some of the crumble mix.
  • Any greens will do nicely with this dish, especially a spoonful of spinach or even a summer salad.
