VEGETABLES THAT GO WITH FISH RECIPES

Steps:

• 1. Pull the leaves from the celery stalks and set them aside. Chop your celery and onion. Heat the olive oil in a medium saucepan over a medium heat. Add the celery (not the leaves), onion, and thyme. Stir until the vegetables start to brown.
  2. Sprinkle the flour over the veggies and stir for a few more minutes. Pour in the milk, add the potato and bring to a boil, stirring the whole time so the soup doesn’t stick to the pot. Cook until the potatoes are tender, but not mushy – this will take around 10 minutes.
  3. Meanwhile, chop the celery leaves, trim the ends off the spring onions and slice them thinly. When the potatoes are tender, stir in the corn, spring onion and celery leaves. Bring the soup back to the boil, then serve.
  4. This is delicious with a crusty brown roll or a Parmesan crisp.

Steps:

• 1. Preheat the oven to 190°C/375°F/gas 5.
  2. Bring three pans of salted water to the boil. Peel the potatoes and carrots, and scrub the beets.
  3. Cut any large potatoes in half and leave any small ones whole. Place the potatoes in one of the pans and parboil for 5 to 10 minutes, or until half cooked. Drain the potatoes, then leave them to steam dry. Return the potatoes to the hot pan and shake it around to chuff up the edges.
  4. Repeat with the carrots and beets but do not shake them around after, leaving them to steam dry.
  5. Pick the rosemary leaves and scatter over the potatoes. Break up and scatter with half of the garlic cloves, unpeeled, a drizzle of olive oil, and a pinch of sea salt and black pepper, then place in a large roasting tray.
  6. Place the carrots and beets in the tray, keeping everything separate, then drizzle over a good lug of olive oil and season well with salt and pepper.
  7. Scatter over the remaining garlic cloves and roast all the veg in the hot oven for about 20 to 30 minutes, giving them a jiggle every so often, or until everything is crispy, golden and delicious – about 10 minutes before they're ready, drizzle the honey over the carrots and add a lug of balsamic to the beets, then return to the oven.
