Method
Fancy some fish tonight? Martin Shanahan shows you how with this Pan Fried Cod dish.
- Place your pan on the heat. Add your oil. When the oil is just just smoking add your fish flesh side down. Leave for two minutes.
- Turn gently when the cod is a lovely golden colour.
- Add the water and cover the pan. Cook for two minutes.
- Add the butter for the last thirty seconds.
- Serve with chips and salad
Note:
This is a little trick we use in the restaurant to ensure that our cod fillet is perfectly cooked. People often find that a nice thick piece of fish will be too dry by the time it's cook through, so this leaves the outside nice and golden and the inside cooked just right.
