Ingredients

1tbsp olive oil

1tsp mustard seeds

200g frozen peas

1tbsp chopped mint

1tbsp lemon juice and zest of 1 lemon

2 salmon fillets

15g flour

1 egg

1tbsp milk

30g breadcrumbs

a little pepper

200ml vegetable oil

2 crusty rolls

a little butter

1tbsp horseradish sauce

chopped parsley

Method

1
Preheat the oven to 200C/180C Fan/ Gas 6. Warm 1tbsp olive oil in a small pan, fry 1tsp mustard seeds until they pop, then add 200g frozen peas, 1tbsp chopped mint and 1tbsp lemon juice. As soon as the peas thaw, take off the heat and mash into a rough purée.
2
Skin 2 salmon fillets with a sharp knife and slice into 4 goujons. Put 15g flour into a bowl. Crack 1 egg into another bowl and beat with 1tbsp milk. In a third bowl, mix 30g breadcrumbs, zest 1 lemon and a little pepper. Coat one goujon at a time in flour, dip into the egg, let any excess drip off, then coat in the breadcrumbs.
3
Warm 200ml vegetable oil on medium in a small frying pan. When a breadcrumb dropped into it starts to sizzle, use tongs to put the goujons in the oil, then fry for 3 mins on each side until golden and cooked through.
4
Halve 2 crusty rolls. Spread a little butter and the mushy peas over the bottom halves, then add 2 goujons, 1tbsp horseradish sauce with chopped parsley and the tops of the rolls. Serve.
