Serves 4
What do I need?
For avocado yoghurt
- 1/2 avocado
- 1/2 cup Greek yoghurt
- Juice of 1/2 a lemon
- 1/4 tsp honey
- 1 tbsp finely chopped chives
For fish and chips
- 2 medium sweet potatoes
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 4 thick pink ling fillets (about 150g each), or other firm white fish
- salt and pepper
- dill sprigs and lemon wedges, to serve
How do I make it?
- For the avocado yoghurt, combine all the ingredients in a bowl and blend with a stick blender to a smooth puree. Season with salt, stir through the chives and set aside.
- Heat your oven to 180C fan-forced. With a vegetable peeler or mandolin, peel the sweet potatoes lengthways into long, thin strips. Place some baking paper in a large oven tray and brush the paper with a little olive oil. Lay the potatoes in a single layer on the paper and brush with more oil. Bake in the oven for eight to 10 minutes, removing the chips as they turn brown. Season with salt and set aside uncovered for a few minutes to crisp.
- Heat a frypan with a heat-proof handle over high heat. Brush the fish with the remaining oil and fry for three minutes on one side (cooking time will depend on the thickness of the fillets). Turn the fish over and transfer the pan to the oven for three minutes to cook through. Remove from the oven and rest the fish for a few minutes before serving.
- Scatter the fish with dill springs, and serve with the sweet potato chips, avocado yoghurt and lemon wedges.
