Method

  1. Heat the oven to 220°C/200°C fan/gas 7. Put the sweet potatoes, beetroot and onions on a large roasting tray and drizzle with the oil. Season, then roast for 30 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, cut a piece of foil large enough to generously wrap the cod loins. Spread each cod loin with a teaspoon of the miso paste, then put on top of the foil. Drizzle 1 tsp honey over each, then wrap the fish in the foil to form a parcel, folding the edges to seal so there are no gaps for steam to escape. After the vegetables have been roasting for 20 minutes, toss with a spatula, then add the cod parcel to the tray and return to the oven for 10 minutes.
  3. Heat a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat, then add the seeds and nuts. Gently toast for 2-3 minutes, then add the rest of the honey and miso along with the soy sauce. Gently cook and stir the mixed seeds/nuts for a minute until sticky, then leave to cool.

  5. After 10 minutes unwrap the fish parcel, turn the oven to a medium grill, then cook for a further 3-5 minutes until everything is cooked through and the fish is golden. Serve the fish and veg topped with the sticky toasted seed/nut mix with steamed green beans, if you like.
