Cod with asparagus and noodles

Cod with asparagus and noodles

Dinner with the kids beautiful fresh Cod, vibrant iron rich Asparagus and fresh egg noodles. Healthy, full of flavour and the kids really enjoy their fish.

Ingredients

- 500g fresh skinless and boneless cod

- 2 bunches of Asparagus

- 400g fresh Egg Noodles

- 2 spring onions (salad onions) for garnish

All ingredients from Sainsburys

Season the Cod with salt and white pepper, then steam the for 10 - 12 minutes. As I've said before I do not have a steamer so use a colander over a pan of water with a piece of foil over the top of the colander works perfectly. Once the Cod is almost cooked remove from the steamer and wrap in foil it will continue to cook whilst you prepare the Asparagus and noodle.

Prepare the noodles as per the instructions on the packet, if you are using fresh this is normally dropping them into boiling water for 2 - 3 minutes. Once cooked drain well and drizzle with olive oil, whilst cooking the noodles you can drop the Asparagus into boiling water for a similar amount of time. Once the Asparagus is cooked plate up immediately drizzling the Asparagus in olive oil and sprinkling with Maldon's sea salt, place the Cod on top of the Asparagus and drizzle with more oil. Plate the noodles and garnish with finely chopped spring onions.

That is it, if you use fresh ingredients, this dish will taste great, do not skimp on the olive oil extra virgin will give you the best flavours.
