Seared Cod with Steamed Asparagus and Cauliflower Mash
A light yet satisfying dinner featuring perfectly seared cod paired with vibrant steamed asparagus and a creamy cauliflower mash. The dish bursts with freshness from garlic and lemon, while maintaining a delicate balance of flavors and textures.
INGREDIENTS
6 oz Cod Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 cup Cauliflower
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for mash)
1 tsp Olive Oil (for searing)
1 Garlic Clove
1 Lemon Wedge
Salt and Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Start by preheating a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat with 1 tsp olive oil.
Season the cod fillet with salt and pepper on both sides.
Place the cod in the hot skillet and sear for about 3-4 minutes per side until a light golden crust forms and the fish flakes easily with a fork.
Meanwhile, prepare the asparagus by washing and trimming the woody ends. Steam the asparagus in a steamer basket over simmering water for about 4-5 minutes until tender yet crisp.
For the cauliflower mash, steam 1 cup of cauliflower along with a garlic clove until very tender (about 8-10 minutes). Transfer to a blender or use an immersion blender.
Add 1 tbsp olive oil to the steamed cauliflower and blend until smooth, seasoning with salt and pepper to taste.
Plate the seared cod alongside the steamed asparagus and a generous serving of cauliflower mash.
Finish with a squeeze of fresh lemon juice from the lemon wedge over the cod for a bright, zesty finish.
