Friday night is fish and chip night but can it be healthy ?
Fish and chips on a Friday has been a favourite of mine for many years. Our local pub does a great Battered fish and chips every Friday for a fiver…YES YOU CAN STILL GET FISH AND CHIPS FOR A FIVER!
The trouble is I find my stomach doesn’t like the deep fried fish, the batter or the oil its fried in. So my healthy version is this…
The recipe…
For my sweet potato chips, I wash and dry the potato, but don’t peel, and slice into wedges ….
I spread these onto a baking tray and season to taste and dot some coconut or olive oil over them and put them at the top of the oven ( I put mine @ 180. I have a fan assisted oven ) for around 20minutes….
I roasted a piece of salmon in the oven for just 15 minutes along side the potatoes, I do this in parchment paper and make a little parcel to steam it and keep it moist…
I sprinkle in some chilli flakes and a tsp of coconut oil. I only had spinach in the fridge that night but add as much veg as you wish. My husband loves his with mushy peas !
Heres your shopping list…
- 1 large sweet potato each
- 1 piece of salmon each
- coconut or olive oil
- optional chilli flakes or a seasoning of your choice
- Green veg
I would love to see your “Healthy Fish and Chip Night”….
