Blanch the frozen peas by placing in a bowl with boiling water and a pinch of salt for 2 minutes. Drain the liquid and place the peas in a Thermomix or blender with the lemon juice and another pinch of salt and blitz until smooth.

Using the same fry pan, fry the barramundi skin down for approximately 2 minutes and then flip over and cook for another 5 minutes or until cooked through. Set aside.

Using the same pan and juices, fry the asparagus for approximately 10 minutes, turning halfway.
