WEIGHT CONVERTER
Method
- To make the rosti: Put the whole, unpeeled potatoes into a pan of boiling water and for cook about 10 mins, depending on their size, until they are just beginning to feel tender. Cool, peel and coarsely grate into a large bowl. Grate the beetroot on to kitchen paper and pat it dry, then add to the potato and season well.
- Heat a non-stick frying pan, add the oil and put in an oiled 20cm (8in) flan ring. Spread the rosti mixture into the ring and cook for 10 mins over a medium heat; put a plate or board on top, turn the pan over then slide the rosti back into the pan and cook for 10 minutes on the other side.
- Meanwhile, rub ginger over the fish and sprinkle with lime juice and oil. Just before serving, cook the fish in batches on a griddle pan - a few minutes each side.
- Cut the rosti into 6 wedges. Serve each piece with a fillet of sea bass and arrange some orange segments and watercress on each plate. Sprinkle with chopped nuts and drizzle with a dressing made with the orange juice and a little oil. (Not suitable for freezing).
