MAHI BA SOMAGH (SUMAC ROASTED FISH)
This flavorful and bright preparation of mahi, which means fish in Persian (not to be confused with mahi-mahi), comes together quickly. In keeping with the sour-leaning Iranian palate, a generous sprinkling of tart sumac and a drizzle of fragrant orange and lime juices coat butterflied whole fish. If your sumac has been languishing in the back of the spice drawer for some time, get a new jar. Over time, sumac loses its fragrance and punchy flavor and becomes bitter and bland. The key to successfully roasting the fish is to remove excess moisture by patting them dry with paper towels. Serve with a side of rice with tahdig, plain steamed rice or oven-baked fries and a simple salad.

Steps:
- Position a rack in the center of the oven and heat oven to 450 degrees. Line a sheet pan with parchment paper. Use paper towels to gently pat the fish dry inside and out, and place the fish on the prepared pan.
- Zest half of the orange directly into a small bowl, then squeeze in the juice from that half (about 3 tablespoons) and the juice from half of the lime (just under 1 tablespoon). Slice the remaining orange and lime halves and set aside for serving. In another small bowl, combine the sumac and turmeric.
- Drizzle the fish with the olive oil inside and out. Open the fish up like books and evenly sprinkle with the pepper and salt. (If using fine salt or coarse kosher salt, use 3/4 teaspoon.) Arrange the open fish in a single layer, angling and overlapping slightly if needed to fit. Drizzle on the citrus mixture and then dust with the sumac mixture to cover most of the flesh.
- Roast the fish until flaky and cooked through, about 10 minutes. Garnish with the reserved orange slices, lime slices and fresh mint, and serve.
FISH STICKS WITH PEAS
Two childhood classics - fish sticks and green peas - find their rightful place back at the dinner table for eaters of all ages to enjoy in this wholesome weeknight meal. The fish stick, coined "the ocean's hot dog" by the historian Joseph Peterson, was first manufactured by Gorton's, the Massachusetts seafood company, in 1953. It soon became popular as a tasty and effortless family meal for Americans wary of cooking fresh fish at home. The key to flavorful homemade fish sticks is to season them well every step of the way. Here, turmeric provides the nostalgic yellow tint while adding a warm, earthy flavor to meaty cod fillets (or any firm white fish). The accompanying peas get a lift from tangy lemon zest and fresh mint, and red-pepper flakes provide just enough heat to liven up your taste buds and dinner plates. Serve with tartar sauce for dipping and lemon wedges.

Steps:
- Prepare your dredging station and make the fish sticks: Place the flour, turmeric, onion powder, garlic powder, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper on a large plate; stir to combine. In a pie plate or shallow bowl, beat the eggs with 1 tablespoon of water and sprinkle with a little salt. Place the bread crumbs and 3/4 teaspoon salt on another large plate and stir to combine. Place a baking sheet beside you.
- Dry the fish well with paper towels. Season the fish with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper, then cut into 1 1/2- to 2-inch strips. Dredge each piece of fish in the seasoned flour (shaking of any excess flour), then in the egg, then in the bread crumbs; place breaded fish pieces on the baking sheet.
- Pan-fry the fish sticks: In a large (12-inch) pan, heat the oil over medium-high. (To bake the fish sticks, see Tip.) When the oil is hot but not smoking, reduce the heat to medium and fry the fish sticks on all four sides until golden and crisped, about 4 minutes per side. You may need to do this in batches; add more oil if needed.
- While the fish fries, prepare the peas: In a large pan, heat the oil over medium-low. Add the garlic and cook, stirring continuously until fragrant, about 2 minutes, taking care not to burn it. Add the lemon zest and some red-pepper flakes, and cook, stirring, until fragrant, about 2 minutes. Add the peas and 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, stir to combine, then cook for 1 minute in the lemony oil. Add 1/4 cup water, increase the heat to medium and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the peas are tender but not mush and most of the water has been absorbed, 5 to 7 minutes. Taste and adjust seasoning. Remove from the heat and stir in the mint.
- Serve the fish sticks with the peas and tartar sauce, plus some lemon wedges to squeeze over the fish.
