Step 1
Preheat oven to 400°F. Flake cod into small pieces, discarding any bones, then fold into lightly beaten egg yolks with lemon zest.
Step 2
Whisk egg whites until stiff peaks form, then fold gently into cod mixture in three additions until just combined.
Step 3
Butter a small baking dish. Fold apricots and cashews into cod soufflé base, then transfer to dish.
Step 4
Bake 10–12 minutes until risen and light golden on top; center should still jiggle slightly when shaken.
Step 5
Drizzle with lemon juice and a pinch of salt. Serve immediately while soufflé is still fluffy.
