THE IDEAL RECIPE FOR COD WITH ROASTED THYME BEETROOT & MASH

Aromatic fresh thyme lends depth to this dish, complementing the sweet earthiness of the beetroot and enhancing the delicate flavour of the cod.

Ingredients (serves 2)

Prep: 10 minutes/ Cook: 30 minutes

300g whole beetroot, peeled and cut into wedges

1 tbsp olive oil

½ pot Thyme, chopped

2 tsp balsamic vinegar

2 cod fillets

450g floury potatoes, cut into chunks

15g butter

3 tbsp semi skimmed milk

2 tsp horseradish sauce

Method

Preheat the oven to 200oC, gas mark 6.

Place the beetroot in a small roasting tin and toss in the oil, 1/3 thyme and vinegar, season and bake for 15 minutes.  Place the cod on a small baking tray and add to the oven and cook for a further 15 minutes until the cod is cooked and beetroot is tender.

Meanwhile, cook the potatoes in boiling water for 10-15 minutes until tender, drain and mash with the butter, milk, 1/3 thyme and seasoning.

Toss the beetroot in the horseradish with 2 tbsp water and remaining thyme and serve with the cod and mash.
