Steps

  1. a large pot of salted water to the boil.
  2. Cook kumara in pot of boiling water until soft, about 12 minutes. Drain, return to pot and mash with butter until smooth. Season to taste with salt and pepper. Cover and set aside.
  3. While kumara cooks, prepare the salad; dice tomatoes; peel and grate carrot; roughly chop spinach; place all in a large bowl with coriander (if using). In a small bowl, mix lemon zest, lemon juice, mayonnaise and garlic (if using) together.
  4. Pat fish dry with paper towels and remove remaining scales or bones. Cut any larger fillets half. On a plate, combine flour, salt and smoked paprika spice mix (if using). Add fish to lightly coat. Heat oil and butter in a large fry-pan (preferably non-stick) on medium to high heat. Fry fish, in batches, for about 2 minutes each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Set aside on paper towels.
  5. Spoon some kumara mash and salad onto plates and serve fish on the side. Top with a squeeze of lemon juice and sprinkle with coriander (if desired).
