Cod in butter with herbs and mashed potatoes

Cod in butter with herbs and mashed potatoes is exactly the kind of dish that looks like a “restaurant plate” but takes you no more than half an hour in the kitchen. White fish is delicate, cooks quickly, and thanks to butter and herbs gets a juicy, almost “luxury” flavor even if you use ordinary store-bought cod. Pair it with a simple creamy mashed potato that any beginner can make – no tricks, just good potatoes, butter, milk, and salt. The result is a light yet satisfying lunch or dinner that kids will enjoy and that holds up as a weekend “Sunday plate.”

Kitchen tip

Cod is a very lean fish, so don’t be afraid of the butter – it gives flavor and juiciness. If you’re cooking for children or someone who’s hesitant about fish, start with a smaller portion and play up the mash – stir in chopped chives or a bit of grated cheese to make it more appealing.

Variants and alternatives

Lighter version: replace part of the butter in the mash with olive oil or use more milk and less fat. You can also fry the cod in ghee instead of regular butter, which is less likely to burn.
