Cooking Steps

Roast the zucchini
1
  • Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced.
  • Slice zucchini into thick rounds. 
  • Place on a lined oven tray.
  • Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes. Remove tray from oven and allow to cool slightly.
Bake the fries
2
  • Meanwhile, place potato fries on a second lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat.
  • Bake until tender, 20-25 minutes.

TIP: If your oven tray is crowded, divide between two trays.

Cook the barramundi
3
  • When the fries have 10 minutes remaining, zest lemon to get a pinch and slice into wedges. 
  • In a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat.
  • Pat barramundi dry with paper towel and season both sides.
  • When oil is hot, cook barramundi, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 5-6 minutes each side (depending on thickness).
  • In the last minute, add capers, lemon zest, the butter and a good squeeze of lemon juice, gently turning barramundi to coat. TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!
    TIP: White fish is cooked through when the centre turns from translucent to white.
Finish & serve

  • In a large bowl, combine Dijon mustard, a generous squeeze of lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Add cooled zucchini and rocket. Toss to combine and season to taste.
  • Divide seared barramundi, roasted zucchini salad and potato fries between plates.
  • Spoon any remaining lemony caper butter over barramundi to serve. Enjoy!
