Organic sourcing

Though cod doesn't significantly benefit from organic certification, choose sustainable options. Fresh herbs are worth buying organic due to potential pesticide residues.

Ingredients

• 4 cod fillets
• 2 tbsp whole-grain mustard
• 1 tbsp Dijon mustard
• 2 tbsp fresh parsley, finely chopped
• 1 tbsp fresh dill, finely chopped
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 tbsp lemon juice
• 2 tbsp extra-virgin olive oil
• to taste sea salt
• to taste freshly ground black pepper

Method

1. Preheat the oven to 200°C (400°F).
2. Pat the cod fillets dry with a paper towel and season them with salt and pepper on both sides.
3. In a small bowl, mix together the whole-grain mustard, Dijon mustard, chopped parsley, dill, and minced garlic.
4. Add the lemon juice and olive oil to the mustard mixture; stir until well combined.
5. Place the cod fillets on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
6. Spread the mustard and herb mixture evenly over the top of each fillet.
7. Bake in the preheated oven for 15-20 minutes, until the fish flakes easily with a fork.

Notes

• For a milder flavor, use all Dijon mustard.
• Serve with steamed vegetables or a green salad.
• Leftovers can be kept in the fridge for up to 2 days.
