Panko-crusted miso hake
2 to 3
Easy
15 minutes
20 minutes
This hake is anything but boring. A schmear of miso pesto adds bold umami, while a golden panko crust gives it crunch. Toasted mustard seeds, pine nuts and sesame bring flair and fragrance. Serve it with asparagus tossed in olive oil and slices of jewel-toned, red-fleshed oranges for something fresh, fast and totally luxe.

Method
Ingredients
1. Pat the hake fillets dry. Spread miso pesto over the flesh side, then press panko crumbs on top.
2. Heat olive oil in a non-stick pan. Fry the fish skin-side down until crisp. Carefully flip and cook until the panko is golden and the fish is just cooked through.
3. In the same pan, add mustard seeds, pine nuts and sesame seeds. Toast until fragrant.
4. Blanche the asparagus, then toss with olive oil and squeeze over fresh orange juice.
5. Plate the hake with the asparagus and scatter over red-fleshed orange segments. Finish with toasted seeds and nuts.
