Everything about this salad is fresh and pleasant. The crisp cos lettuce salad with a punch of pepper from the radish is ready to welcome crumbed fish to your table, then the Caesar dressing takes it up another notch! We’ve replaced the pita bread in this recipe with ciabatta due to local ingredient availability. It’ll be just as delicious, just follow your recipe card!

Cooking Steps

Get prepped
1

• Preheat oven to 220°C/200°C fan-forced.
• Roughly chop cos lettuce. Thinly slice radish. 
• Slice tomato and lemon into wedges. 
• Discard any liquid from hoki fillet packaging. Slice fish in half crossways to 
get 1 piece per person.
• In a shallow bowl, combine Kiwi spice blend and the plain flour. In a 
second shallow bowl, whisk the egg. In a third shallow bowl, place panko 
breadcrumbs.
• Gently dip fish first into flour mixture to coat, then into the egg and finally 
in breadcrumbs. Set aside on a plate.

Make the croutons & cook the fish
2

• Cut or tear ciabatta into bite-sized chunks. Place on a lined oven tray, drizzle 
with olive oil and season with salt and pepper. Toss to coat. Spread out 
evenly, then bake until golden, 5-7 minutes.
• Meanwhile, heat a large frying pan over medium-high heat with enough 
olive oil to cover the base. Cook crumbed fish in batches, until golden  
and cooked through, 2-4 minutes each side. 
• Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate. 


TIP: Add extra oil if needed so the crumbed fish does not stick to the pan.

Toss the salad
3

• While the fish is cooking, in a large bowl, combine a generous squeeze of 
lemon juice and a drizzle of olive oil. Add cos lettuce, radish and tomato. 
• Toss to combine, then season to taste with salt and pepper. 

Finish & serve
4

• Divide crumbed fish and lemony cos salad between plates. Sprinkle over 
ciabatta croutons and drizzle Caesar dressing over salad. 
• Serve with any remaining lemon wedges. Enjoy!
