Ingredients

Preparation

Lemon mayonnaise

Mix the mayonnaise with the lemon juice, lemon zest and mustard and season to taste with salt and pepper.

Green asparagus

Snap off the woody ends and halve the spears lengthways.
Fry in the olive oil over a high heat for 3–4 minutes, until lightly coloured but still firm. Season with salt.

Cod and prawns

Beat the egg in a bowl. Cut the cod into 4 pieces, season with salt and pepper and dust lightly with flour, before you dip it in egg, followed by panko breadcrumbs.
Heat the oil and butter in a pan and fry the cod over a medium heat for 3–4 minutes on each side, spooning the foaming butter over the fish.
Add the prawns for the last minute and warm them through in the butter.
Toast the bread, butter it and spread with lemon mayonnaise.
Arrange the asparagus on top and place a piece of cod on each slice.
Scatter over the prawns, finish with dill and black pepper and serve with a lemon wedge.
