Chili Cashew Crusted Fish


Serves 2

400 g fish fillets, frozen and then thawed are fine
25 g butter
3 tbsp breadcrumbs
50 g cashew nuts, raw, and coarsely chopped
1 tsp sambal oelek
1 garlic clove, minced
1 lime - the juice and the zest
handful of cherry tomatoes

Preheat the oven to 225°C. Divide the fish into portions if you're using a frozen (and thawed) block of fish. Put it in an oven-proof dish and salt lightly.

Melt the butter and add breadcrumbs, nuts, sambal oelek, garlic, lime juice and lime zest. Spread on top of the fish. Halve the tomatoes and place them alongside.

Bake in the oven for about 20 minutes or until the fish is done (it should be opaque and flaky) and the crust has some color.
