How to Make Cornflake Crumbed Fish With Spinach

  1. Preheat oven to 375°F (190°C).
  2. Roast cherry or grape tomatoes on a baking sheet for 15 minutes.
  3. In a shallow dish, combine 1 ½ cups crushed cornflakes, 1 teaspoon ground cumin, ½ teaspoon paprika, and ¼ teaspoon turmeric.
  4. In another shallow dish, lightly beat 2 large egg whites.
  5. Lightly coat each fish fillet (about 4, 4-6 oz each) in flour, then dip in the egg whites, ensuring it's fully coated.
  6. Press the cornflake mixture firmly onto the fish fillets, covering completely.
  7. Refrigerate the coated fish for 20 minutes.
  8. While the fish chills, sauté 10 oz fresh spinach with 1 tablespoon olive oil and a pinch of salt until wilted (about 3-5 minutes).
  9. Place the fish fillets on a foil-lined baking tray.
  10. Bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and the crust is golden brown.
  11. Arrange the roasted tomatoes and sautéed spinach on a plate. Top with the baked fish.
  12. Drizzle with fresh lemon juice to taste.
