Quick lunch and dinner recipe using cod

Lots of flavours in this super easy to make dish.  Makes a filling lunch or a lighter evening dinner.  Spices such as coriander, paprika and cumin give the fish coating a bit of life and the lemon/garlic/butter sauce is decadent.  So increase your fish intake this week with an easy to make baked cod.

What fish to use

We got some Cod on offer from our local fishmonger, you could also use Haddock, Hake, Pollock, Coley  or Whiting

Can this be frozen?

As we used previously frozen fish, we didn’t freeze it and it tastes a lot better eaten on the day it is made.
