Preparation

  1. Wash the courgette, lemon and herbs. Trim the courgette ends, dry the herbs and weigh the prepared ingredients. Cut a few thin slices from the weighed 40 g lemon; squeeze the remaining piece for the sauce.
  2. Cut the courgette into long strips and put in a steaming dish. Check the weighed cod flesh for bones. Season the fish with some of the measured salt and pepper, then place on the courgette with the lemon slices and some of the weighed dill.
  3. Steam covered until the fish flesh is opaque and flakes easily with a fork and the courgette softens. Adjust cooking to the thickness of the fish piece.
  4. Blend all the weighed 20 g olive oil with parsley, chives, the remaining dill and juice from the reserved lemon portion. Add the rest of the previously weighed salt and pepper to the sauce.
  5. Transfer courgette and cod to a plate and serve the green sauce over the fish. The lemon slices provide aroma and presentation; the prepared recipe makes one serving.
