Method
- To make the tartare sauce, put the yogurt (reserve 2 tbsp) in a bowl and stir in the capers, gherkins, shallot and chopped parsley. Set aside.
- In a pan of boiling water, cook the peas for 3 minutes. Drain then return to the pan with the garlic, mint (if using), oil, lemon juice and the reserved yogurt. Crush lightly with a fork to give a chunky mash. Keep warm.
- Heat a barbecue or griddle pan until hot. Season the fish and put skin side down on the barbecue or griddle. Cover and cook for 5-6 minutes until the fish is opaque and cooked through. Remove and rest skin side up for 2 minutes.
- Steam the carrots for 3-5 minutes, until tender. Divide the pea mash between plates, top with the fish and a dollop of tartare. Serve with the carrots, reserved parsley and a drizzle of olive oil.
