This recipe combines tender white fish with pungent red hot chili peppers, served alongside creamy mashed potatoes and nutritious green beans.

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Potatoes:
- Peel and chop the potatoes into evenly sized chunks.
- Place the potatoes in a large pot and cover with water. Add a pinch of salt.
- Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce to a simmer and cook until the potatoes are tender, about 10-15 minutes.
2. Prepare the Green Beans:
- While the potatoes are cooking, trim the ends of the green beans.
- Fill a medium saucepan with water and bring to a boil. Add the green beans and cook for about 3-5 minutes until tender-crisp.
- Drain the beans and set them aside.
3. Prepare the Sweet Chili Fish:
- Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
- Finely chop the red hot chili peppers, removing seeds if you prefer less heat.
- In a baking dish, place the white fish fillets. Season with salt and pepper.
- Sprinkle the chopped chili peppers evenly over the fish.
- Bake in the preheated oven for about 15-20 minutes, or until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork.
4. Mash the Potatoes:
- Once the potatoes are tender, drain them and return to the pot.
- Add the heavy whipping cream and milk.
- Mash the potatoes until smooth and creamy, adding more salt and pepper to taste.
5. Serve:
- Divide the mashed potatoes onto plates.
- Place a portion of the sweet chili fish on each plate next to the mashed potatoes.
- Add a portion of green beans to each plate.
- Serve immediately and enjoy!

Tips:

- Choose a firm white fish like cod or haddock to ensure it holds its shape while cooking.

- For extra creamy mashed potatoes, ensure both the cream and milk are warm before adding them to the potatoes.

- Blanch the green beans quickly to retain their bright color and crisp texture.

- Adjust the heat of the dish by using more or fewer chili peppers according to your taste.

Sweet Chilli Fish with Mash & Beans is a well-rounded meal that is sure to impress family and friends. With the ideal blend of spicy fish, creamy mash, and fresh green beans, this recipe is both nourishing and flavorful, offering a gourmet experience right at home.
