Satisfying Suppers

Cod with cucumber, avocado & mango salsa salad

Avocados are a great source of potassium – along with their rich monounsaturated fat, they’re super-healthy for your heart. You might think the mango would make this recipe high in calories, but combined with low-fat cod – an excellent source of stress-busting B vitamins – and magnesium, it is surprisingly low.

SERVES 2

PREP 5 mins

COOK 8 mins EASY

2 x 125g skinless cod fillets

1 lime, zested and juiced

1 small mango, peeled, stoned and chopped (or 2 peaches, stoned and chopped)

1 small avocado, stoned, peeled and sliced

¼ cucumber, chopped

160g cherry tomatoes, quartered

1 red chilli, deseeded and chopped

2 spring onions, sliced handful chopped coriander

1 Heat oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6. Put the fish in a shallow ovenproof dish and pour over half the lime juice, with a little of the zest, then grind over some black pepper. Bake for 8 mins or until the fish flakes easily but is still moist.

2 Meanwhile, put the rest of the ingredients, plus the remaining lime juice and zest, in a bowl and combine well. Spoon onto plates and top with the cod, spooning over any juices in the dish.

Meat cooked on the bone will add additional nutrients to the sauce in the form of amino acids, gelatin (good for the joints), selenium and zinc – which is why bone broth is so popular.
