Fish finger tacos with pea & mint salsa

These tacos are made with crispy fish fingers, a crushed mint pea salsa and a chipotle paste-infused yogurt to give the dish an added kick.  Adjust the salsa to taste as punchy or as mild as needed for this flavour-packed riff on fish and mushy peas.

Ingredients

  • 300g pack 10 Essential Cod Fish Fingers
  • 150g natural Greek-style yogurt
  • 2 tsp chipotle paste
  • 320g frozen petits pois
  • 1 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • ½ unwaxed lemon, zest
  • 1 tbsp nonpareille capers, drained and chopped
  • 1 small handful/s mint leaves, shredded
  • 8 Gran Luchito Mexican Soft Taco Wraps

Method

  1. Preheat the oven to 220ºC, gas mark 7 and bake the fish fingers according to pack instructions. Mix the yogurt with the chipotle paste, then season and set aside.

  2. Meanwhile, boil the petits pois for 3 minutes until piping hot. Rinse under the cold tap to cool, shake off the excess water, then tip into a mixing bowl and mash lightly, using a potato masher or the back of a fork. Stir through the oil, lemon zest, capers and mint. Season.

  3. Toast each tortilla in a dry frying pan over a medium heat for 30 seconds each side, wrapping in foil as you go to keep them warm. Spread each tortilla with spoonfuls of chipotle yogurt and pea salsa. Top with halved fish fingers (or whole in adult portions), serving 2 tacos per person.

Cook’s tip

Chipotles are smoked and dried jalapeno chillies. Leftover paste can be used to marinate chicken or steak, or try stirring a little into mayonnaise to serve with sweet potato wedges.
