Prep & roast

  • Heat your oven to 200ºC/fan 180ºC/gas 6.
  • Peel and halve the squash lengthways, discard the seeds and cut into 3cm cubes. Cut the sweet potatoes into 3cm cubes. Put the squash and sweet potato on a baking tray lined with baking paper and spritz with cooking spray.
  • Mix with half the Thai paste and roast for 25-30 mins until soft and golden.

Get the fish going

  • Meanwhile, finely chop the coriander and zest the limes. To make the yogurt drizzle, in a small bowl, mix half the lime zest and half the coriander with the yogurt. Cut half the remaining lime into wedges.
  • Put the cod on a baking tray lined with baking paper and spritz with cooking spray. Sprinkle the juice of the remaining lime over the cod and scatter with the remaining zest, then roast for 10-12 mins until cooked through and flaking.

Create a stir(fry)!

  • At the same time, peel and finely slice the onions, then deseed and thinly slice the peppers. Finely chop the chilli (deseed for less heat).
  • Spritz a large non-stick frying pan with cooking spray and put it over a medium-high heat. Fry the onions and peppers for 4 mins, then add the chilli, ginger & garlic paste, mangetout and remaining Thai paste and cook for 3 mins.

Plate up

  • Top the roasted and stir-fried veg with the cod. Add the lime wedges, then drizzle over the zesty yogurt and scatter with the remaining coriander to serve.
