Preheat the oven to 220°C/ 200°C (fan)/ gas 7 and boil a kettle Peel and cut your waxy potatoes into small, bite-sized pieces Add them to a pot, cover with boiled water and a pinch of salt and bring back to the boil over a high heat Once boiling, cook for 12-15 min until the potatoes are fork-tender

Meanwhile, cut your cherry tomatoes in half

Pat your basa fillet[s] dry with kitchen paper and add to a tin foil-lined baking tray (or two!) with the halved cherry tomatoes Drizzle with olive oil and season with a pinch of salt and pepper, then put the tray[s] in the oven for 12-15 min or until cooked through Tip: Your fish is cooked once it turns opaque and flakes easily

Meanwhile, peel and roughly chop your garlic Chop your parsley and basil roughly, including the stalks Cut your lemon[s] in half, then slice off 1 wedge per person and set aside for garnish

Add the chopped garlic, parsley and basil to a pestle & mortar and grind to a coarse paste Grate your cheddar cheese directly into the mortar and continue to grind together to make a paste Drizzle over enough olive oil to loosen the mix, then add a squeeze of lemon juice and season with a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your pesto Tip: Don't have a pestle & mortar? Pulse in a food processor instead!

Drain the cooked potatoes and leave them to steam-dry for 5 min Tip: This allows the potatoes to dry out, making them perfect for mashing later!

Return the drained potatoes to the pot with a generous squeeze of lemon juice, a knob of butter and a drizzle of olive oil Mash until smooth, then season with a pinch of salt and pepper – this is your lemon mash

Serve the baked basa over the lemon mash with the cherry tomatoes to the side Drizzle a little pesto over the fish and serve the rest to the side Garnish with a reserved lemon wedge Enjoy!
