Method

Wash the herbs. Squeeze off the excess water and chop them fine. They should still be damp. Combine the herbs with the Parmesan and the breadcrumbs. Season with salt and pepper and mix in the melted butter. Roll this mixture out between two sheets of cling film to about 4cm thick. Place in the freezer until firm. Cut into pieces the same size as the cod portions.
