Mitch Tonks created a simple yet delicious recipe for hake with sweet garlic and olive oil. We like to use rapeseed oil, as it doesn't burn if the temperature gets a little hot, but we follow his recipe in every other detail

Heat the oil until medium / hot. Season the hake with sea salt and cracked pepper and place in pan for 3-4 mins, add some thinly sliced garlic and turn down the heat to prevent the garlic from burning

Turn the fish and cook for another 3 minutes or so, ensure the garlic doesn't burn, then remove the hake from the pan.

Add some olive oil to the pan, a little lemon juice, chopped parsley and season to taste. Drizzle over the hake steaks and serve
