Is this recipe a tweak when following the Slimming World plan?

Firstly, what is a tweak? A tweak is when you use a particular Syn free food in a way it is not meant to be consumed. I.E here we are using couscous as a coating rather than cooking it to eat fully expanded. 

25g Couscous used as coating or flour should be classed as 4.5 Syns. 

Here is my own personal opinion as a Slimming World veteran…

I would not tweak this recipe, back in 2015 tweaks did not exist in the SW community either. 

Here is why I do not believe this particular recipe deserves to be Synned… The couscous is still being used in it’s usual manner. We are using boiling water to expand and then coat the fish. I do not believe I would consume any less couscous than if I was making the couscous and serving it next to fish. However if I was coating the fish with couscous in a dry manner I would definitely tweak this recipe.

Eating this recipe once or a twice a month as never affected my weight loss but this is your journey so I will leave the decision to you.

Healthy Baked Fish

Slimming World Syns: Syn Free* (If you are tweaking allow 9 Syns per serving)
Weight Watchers: Coming Soon
Calories: 293 Per Serving
Course Main Course
Cuisine British
Prep Time 10 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 40 minutes
Servings 2

Ingredients

  • 2 Skinless Boneless Cod Fillets [Cut into 6]
  • 100g Plain Cous Cous
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 3 tsp Lemon Juice
  • ½ tsp Parsley
  • ½ tsp Basil
  • ½ tsp Mustard Powder
  • 2 Medium Eggs (Beaten)
  • Salt & Pepper to season
  • Boiling Water
  • Fry Light or Low fat cooking spray

Instructions

  • In a small bowl add Cous cous, Paprika, Parsley, Lemon juice, Basil, Mustard powder, Salt and Pepper.
  • Pour boiling water into the bowl until it literally just covers the couscous (no more). Stir everything together. Allow to stand for 5 to 10 minutes.
  • Pre heat the oven to 220c/200c/gas mark 7.
  • You are looking for a dry fluffy couscous.. if you feel the couscous can expand some more feel free to add a little bit more water.
  • Add half of the beaten egg and stir in, you are looking for a gooey sticky mixture, not too runny. If it already feels too runny do not add the remainder of the egg.
  • Spray a baking tray with frylight to prevent sticking. (or use brown grease proof paper)
  • Coating the fish is not always the easiest.. it will not stick perfectly.. try to cover the fish as much as possible.. then feel free to put the fish onto the baking tray and add more couscous on the top. There is no real perfection to this recipe its trial and error to get it right for you.
  • OVEN: After all of the fish is coated, spritz with Frylight and place into the oven for 25 – 30 minutes or until golden and the fish is cooked through.
  • AIRFRYER: After all of the fish is coated, spritz with Frylight and place into the air fryer for 10 – 15 minutes or until golden and the fish is cooked through.
