• 1 x 200 g packet Woolworths streaky bacon

Method

Ingredients

Preheat the oven to 200°C. Pan-fry Woolworths streaky bacon in olive oil until very crispy. Blend or finely chop the bacon until its texture resembles breadcrumbs.

Dip the portions Norwegian salmon into the beaten free-range egg.

Generously pat the bacon onto the top of each portion. Heat the olive oil in a nonstick pan until very hot. Fry the fish skin-side down for 3–5 minutes, or until crispy. Finish in the oven for a further 2–4 minutes. Do not turn the fish.

Cook the frozen peas in salted boiling water for 3 minutes. Drain and coarsely mash using a fork, adding a drizzle of olive oil and chopped fresh mint. Season to taste and serve with the salmon.

Cook's note: Moreish bacon bits add crunch and a mouthwatering extra layer of flavour to this alternative
to crumbed fish.
