Oven Baked Cod coated in a Walnut, Lemon and Parmesan crust.

This is without doubt one of my all time favourite dishes!!
The crunchy crust embracing the soft flesh of a beautiful piece of cod, you cant beat it!!

If you're going to give this dish a go, id suggest going out and buying the best cod fillet you can afford!
Lets face it, you're not going to be having a meal like this all the time, so why not go out and buy the best ingredients you can afford.

before you start cooking, pre-heat your oven to the highest setting to get it piping hot, and also take your fish out of the fridge to allow it to come to room temperature.

For the crust, you will need.

• A big handful of walnuts
• A cup of breadcrumbs
• Half a cup of grated Parmesan
• The zest of 1 lemon
• Salt and Pepper
• A little drizzle of oil

First things first, give your walnuts a blast in the food processor and then add all of your other ingredients and blitz until it resembles a crunchy paste.

Then simply rub the flesh of your cod with your walnut paste and cook it at gas mark 6 for 20 to 25 minutes.
Its that simple!! Why not try my Cauliflower rice recipe to go with your fish?
