Method

  • step 1

    Heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7. Tip the flour into a bowl and season. Dip each cod fillet into the flour until evenly coated. Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat and fry the cod on each side for 2 mins, or until golden brown. Transfer to a roasting tin with the lemon slices on top and nestled in half the thyme. Bake for 10 mins.

  • step 2

    Heat the remaining oil in a pan and fry the leeks and mushrooms for 5 mins over a medium-high heat. Add the orzo and stock, and cook for 10 mins over a high heat, stirring continuously until tender. Stir through the crème fraîche and lemon zest. Season. Serve the orzo with the cod on top, along with the roasted lemon slices.

I loved this hearty yet fresh dish! I recommend to not go too heavy on the lemon as cod is a delicately flavoured fish.

Loved this!!! Surprisingly delicious and easy! I think the timings of cod roasting in oven is too long… I waited 10 mins then put cod in oven once added orzo. Didn’t have any creme fraiche but used a couple spoons of full fat cream cheese instead. I used marigold veg stock and extra fresh thyme.…

Cooked this today, worked well but did use around 700ml stock, I used chicken stock. Also used basa instead of cod and lemon thyme. Was lovely and would cook again

Nice, but the pasta was a little glutenous and maybe could have done with rinsing first, although it was kind of like a risotto, so I guess it would be a bit! I just think it could have done with a little more flavour, it was very mild but pleasant.
