SALAD:

8 cups mixed greens of your choice

2 medium tomatoes, cut into wedges

1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil

1 tablespoon lemon juice

PREPARE THE FISH:

Into a steamer or a saucepan, put about ¼ inch of water, and bring to a boil. Add the cod fillets, cover, and cook over medium heat for about 7 minutes, or until translucent. Let cool. Using a fork, break up the fish into flakes.

In a spice grinder or food processor, grind the pumpkin seeds or macadamia nuts to the size of medium bread crumbs. Alternatively, you can place the nuts in a plastic bag and crush them using a rolling pin.

In a large bowl, whisk the egg and add the herbs, onion, lemon zest, and lemon juice. Add the fish flakes, mustard, cayenne, salt, and pepper. Form into 4 patties. Spread the ground pumpkin seeds or macadamia nuts on a plate and coat the patties on all sides.

Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan over medium heat. Cook the cod cakes for 3 minutes on each side.

ASSEMBLE THE DISH:

Serve each cod cake alongside or on top of the greens, garnish with tomato wedges, and drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice.
