Ingredients

  1. 4 x 180g Blue Eye Cod fillets
  2. 80g fresh breadcrumbs
  3. 2 tbsp chopped fresh herbs (parsley, dill, or chives)
  4. 70g unsalted butter (50g for crust, 20g for sauce)
  5. 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
  6. 2 tbsp grated parmesan cheese
  7. 1 tbsp thickened cream
  8. 1 green apple, peeled and thinly sliced
  9. 1 tbsp tomato paste
  10. 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
  11. 100ml dry white wine
  12. 100ml fish stock or chicken stock
  13. 8 asparagus spears, trimmed
  14. Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste

Method

  1. Pat the fish dry with paper towel and season.
  2. Combine the breadcrumbs, herbs, 50g butter, mustard, parmesan, and cream to form a paste. Spread onto each fillet and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  3. Preheat the oven to 220°C.
  4. Heat the remaining butter in a pan over medium heat, add the apple, and cook until a rich brown. Transfer to a plate. Set aside the pan (do not clean).
  5. Place the Blue Eye Cod on a baking tray and roast on the top oven shelf for 10 minutes.
  6. Return the pan to medium heat, deglaze with tomato paste, vinegar, wine, and stock. Reduce by half. Add the apple and asparagus and heat through. Serve topped with the cod and drizzled with sauce.

Chef's Tip

Blue Eye Cod is best roasted gently so the flesh stays buttery, moist, and flaky in the center. The mustard herb crust adds texture and savoury depth without overpowering the delicate seafood flavour, while the sharp apple and white wine sauce bring freshness and balance to the dish. Restaurant-quality seafood is often about restraint — letting premium fish remain the hero of the plate.
