  2. Halve, de-stone and slice the nectarines into wedges. Add to a lined baking tray with the hake. Season the hake with sea salt and black pepper. Bake for 12-15 mins, until the fish is cooked.
  3. Finely slice the spring onion. Zest then quarter the lemon. In a mixing bowl, combine the spring onions, half the zest, juice from 1 lemon wedges, mixed salad and 1 tsp oil. Mix well.
