03 — Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 200 °C (400 °F) fan. Take the cod out 15 minutes ahead and pat dry.
  2. Toast the 150 g (1½ cups) of almonds in a dry skillet for 3 minutes, stirring, until golden.
  3. Roughly chop the almonds. Remove the germ from the 2 garlic cloves and chop finely. Chop the parsley and chives.
  4. In the medium bowl, mix the almonds, breadcrumbs, Parmesan, garlic, herbs, lemon zest and soft butter with a fork.
  5. The mixture should be firm enough to stay on the fish.
  6. Set the cod on the large parchment-lined baking sheet, season and brush the tops with Dijon mustard.
  7. Spread the almond mixture over each fillet, pressing so it sticks.
  8. Drizzle with olive oil and bake for 15 minutes at 200 °C (400 °F) until the crust is golden and the fish flakes easily. Serve with lemon wedges.
