Method

3-step Fish and Chips

1.Preheat oven to 220°C (200°C fan-forced). Place chips in a single layer on a large baking tray. Bake according to packet instructions or until golden brown and crisp.

2.Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs, 2 tablespoons of the parsley and 1 tablespoon of lemon zest in bowl. Whisk milk and egg in a separate bowl. Dip fish in milk, then breadcrumbs to coat evenly. Place on a baking tray. Spray with oil; bake for 8-10 minutes or until golden and cooked.

3.Meanwhile, whisk mayonnaise, remaining parsley, remaining zest and capers in a small bowl. Place fish and chips on serving plates. Serve fish and chips with caper mayonnaise and salad.

We used basa fillets, an affordable firm white fish available at most supermarkets and fish shops. You can use any variety of fish; cooking times may vary. DIY idea: Serve fish and chips with bought tartare sauce instead of caper mayonnaise. Health bite: This is a healthier alternative to battered fish and chips. Japanese breadcrumbs (panko) are available from the Asian food aisle and Asian grocery stores. You can use packaged dried crumbs; colour and texture will vary.
