From reproductive rights to climate change to Big Tech, The Independent is on the ground when the story is developing. Whether it's investigating the financials of Elon Musk's pro-Trump PAC or producing our latest documentary, 'The A Word', which shines a light on the American women fighting for reproductive rights, we know how important it is to parse out the facts from the messaging.

At such a critical moment in US history, we need reporters on the ground. Your donation allows us to keep sending journalists to speak to both sides of the story.

The Independent is trusted by Americans across the entire political spectrum.

Plaice Goujons with a walnut crust

Preparation time: 45 mins
Serves: 4

90g California walnuts, toasted
Small bunch of parsley
Zest of 1 lemon
40g panko bread crumbs
A pinch of salt and pepper 
4 tbsp mayonnaise 
2 tsp Dijon mustard
Half a tbsp water 
​300g plaice, skinned and cut into fingers 
2 tbsp sunflower oil
Tartar sauce, to serve

Preheat the oven to 180°C.

Place the walnuts, parsley and lemon zest into a food processor and blitz to a fine crumb. Mix with the panko bread crumbs and salt and pepper, and place on a dinner plate.

Mix together the mayonnaise and Dijon, then loosen with the water to form a good dipping consistency. Dip the plaice fingers into the mayonnaise mix and then roll in the bread crumbs to coat. 

Place on a flat baking tray lined with parchment and brush with a little sunflower oil.

Drizzle the goujons with a little oil and place in the oven for 15- 20 minutes (or until cooked through and crispy on the outside).

Serve with tartar sauce and a lemon wedge.
