METHOD
Preheat oven to 200°C and put a roasting pan in to heat. Combine potato and olive oil in a bowl, season to taste, then add to hot pan and shake to spread out evenly. Roast until golden brown and tender, 15-20 mins. Season to taste. Meanwhile, combine breadcrumbs, lemon rind and thyme in a bowl and season to taste. Brush fish with mustard, then toss in crumb mixture to coat evenly. For slaw, combine ingredients in a bowl, season to taste and toss well to combine. Heat a good splash of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat, add fish and fry, turning occasionally until golden brown and cooked through, 3-4 mins. Serve with roast potatoes, slaw and lemon wedges.
