Cooking Steps

PDF

• Preheat oven to 240°C/220°C fan-forced. • Place potato fries on a lined oven tray. Drizzle with olive oil, season with salt and toss to coat. • Bake fries until tender, 20-25 minutes.

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

• Meanwhile, slice apple into thin sticks. Thinly slice cucumber into rounds. • On a plate, combine Aussie spice blend, the plain flour and a pinch of pepper. • Press barramundi, skin-side up, into the spice mixture to coat.

• When the fries have 10 minutes remaining, in a large frying pan, heat a drizzle of olive oil over medium-high heat. • When oil is hot, cook barramundi, skin-side down first, until just cooked through, 5-6 minutes each side (depending on thickness).

TIP: Don’t worry if your barramundi gets a little charred. This adds to the flavour! TIP: Patting the skin dry helps it crisp up in the pan!

• In a medium bowl, combine apple, cucumber, mixed salad and balsamic vinaigrette dressing. Season. • Divide seared barramundi, fries and apple salad between plates. Serve with dill & parsley mayonnaise. Enjoy!

Review summary

Updated on Feb 2026

Flavour: Many loved the tasty barramundi, with some calling it "restaurant quality". The dill-parsley mayo was a delicious accompaniment.
Ease of prep: Simple and quick to prepare, though some found the fish tricky to handle due to thin fillets.
Suggestions: For crispier chips, cook them longer than the recipe suggests. Pat the fish skin dry before cooking for better results.
Portions: Several found the fish portions small for adults; consider adding extra barramundi if you're extra hungry.
Salad: The apple-cucumber salad was refreshing and surprisingly delicious, pairing well with the fish.
