Cooking Instructions

The protein cooking time listed in this recipe has been updated.

As of December 2025, we’ve revised cooking times for all our proteins to reflect improved food safety guidance.

Check out the latest recommended times in our Cooking Guidelines.

Before you start

  • Bring a medium saucepan filled with salted water to a boil
  • Line a baking tray with silver foil
  • Boil a half-full kettle
  • Pull out a large lidded frying pan, a sieve, a masher, a grater & a measuring jug

Make the mash

  • Peel and dice the potato and sweet potato into 3cm chunks, then add to the saucepan. Simmer for 15-18 mins, until soft, then drain
  • Return to the pan and mash with 2 tsp oil and a pinch of salt and pepper

Do the prep

  • Mix the creamed coconut, stock powder and mustard in the jug with 250ml boiling water (125ml for 1 person), until dissolved
  • Dice the onion and carrot into 1cm chunks. Finely chop or grate the garlic. Finely chop the dill. Zest and halve the lemon

Simmer the fish

  • Heat the large frying pan with 1 tsp oil on medium heat. Once hot, add the carrot and cook for 2-3 mins, then add the onion and cook for another 4-5 mins, until softened. Season with salt and pepper
  • Add the garlic and lemon zest and cook for 1 min, then stir in the coconut stock mixture. Bring the sauce to a boil, lay the cod evenly into the pan, cover with a lid and simmer for 19 mins, until the fish is cooked through

Time to grill

  • Preheat the grill to high (240C)
  • Stir the dill, nutritional yeast and a squeeze of lemon juice into the fish pan. Season to taste, then transfer to the ovenproof dish. Top with the mash and spread evenly
  • Trim the broccoli and add to the lined baking tray, drizzle with 1 tsp oil and season with salt and pepper
  • Grill the broccoli and fish pie for 8-9 mins, until golden and cooked through

Plate up

  • Check your fish is cooked through; it should be steaming hot, opaque and separate easily with a fork
  • Share the pie between plates, with the broccoli alongside. Garnish with the remaining lemon, cut into wedges
