Recipe of the week

I love cooking, says Glynn Purnell, but like most people I hate washing up. This fantastic, hearty fish dish is not only a delicious treat, but to make it you only need to dirty one pan. Perfect.

Pollack with chorizo, butter beans and goat’s cheese

Serves 4 4 x 140g skinless pollack fillets, pin-boned 25g plain flour, for dusting splash of vegetable oil 400g can of butter beans, rinsed and drained ½ Spanish cooking chorizo, cut into strips 200ml hot chicken stock 500g baby spinach 100g goat’s cheese 2 tsps unsalted butter crusty bread, such as bloomer or French baguette, to serve

• Dust the pollack fillets with the flour, shaking off any excess. • Heat a frying pan until hot, add a little vegetable oil and fry the fish fillets for 3-4 minutes until golden brown. • Carefully turn the fish over and fry for a further 1-2 minutes, or until golden brown and just cooked through (the fish should be opaque all the way through). • Add the butter beans and chorizo to the pan, then the stock and cook for 4 minutes to heat through. • Add the spinach, goat’s cheese and butter to the pan and cook until the cheese is melted. • Place each fish fillet in a shallow serving bowl and spoon the butter bean mixture around. Serve with some crusty bread.
