ONE-PAN ROASTED FISH WITH CHERRY TOMATOES

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 400 degrees. Place the tomatoes, shallots and garlic in a 9-by-13-inch nonreactive baking dish. In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, vinegar, honey, salt and pepper. Pour over the tomatoes and toss to combine. Roast until the tomatoes have collapsed and the shallots are translucent, about 15 minutes.
• While the tomatoes roast, pat the fish dry with paper towels, brush all over with olive oil, and season generously with salt and pepper.
• Toss the tomatoes, move them to the sides of the dish and place the fish fillets, evenly spaced, in the center. Roast until the fish is cooked through and flakes easily with a fork, 10 to 12 minutes.
• Sprinkle the entire dish with the lemon zest, basil and mint. Serve the fish with the tomatoes, spooning any remaining juices on top.

COD & MEDITERRANEAN TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Roughly chop the onion, carrot, celery and garlic.
• Pour half of the olive oil into a pan, heat and then add the chopped vegetables. Sweat the vegetables without colouring them until softened.
• Add the chopped tomatoes, basil leaves, passata, sugar and chilli flakes and pepper. Give good stir and then allow to simmer and reduce for at least 30 minutes. If a smoother sauce is required, this is the time to use a hand held blender (or similar) to get rid of any lumps.
• Mix the flour and seasoning in a shallow bowl and then dredge cod loins in the flour and set aside ready to fry.
• Heat the remaining oil in a frying pan and then gently place the floured cod loins into the pan and cook, turn the cod carefully and continue to fry until the cod has cooked through. Do not be tempted to cook the fish for too long or else it will dry out.
• Serve the cod with the sauce. A good accompaniment to this is gnocchi. Also, can add a handful of black olives to the tomato sauce to give it some extra zing.

FISH AND TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Cut up the cod into chunks and pat dry with kitchen paper. Coat with the flour.
• Heat oil in a pan and brown the fish, set aside.

MEDITERRANEAN TOMATO FISH SAUCE

Steps:

• Sauté the chopped garlic cloves in 3 tbsp of oil, in a pot, then add the whole can of crushed tomatoes when done. Let simmer over low heat until the mixture looks like soup.
• In a different sauce pan, sauté the chopped onion, almonds and raisins in the remaining oil, over medium-high heat.
• Serve over fish fillet baked in lemon, butter or oil, pepper and salt.

BROWNED AND BRAISED FISH IN TOMATO SAUCE

Steps:

• Put half the oil in a deep skillet wide enough to accommodate the fish. Turn heat to medium high. Sprinkle fish with salt and pepper, and dredge skin side in flour. When oil is hot (a pinch of flour will sizzle), put fish in pan skin side down and cook, adjusting heat as necessary so fish browns but does not burn. Cook without turning 5 to 10 minutes, until bottom of fish is nicely browned. Turn off heat, and carefully remove fish to a platter, browned side up.
• Let pan cool a few moments, and wipe it out with paper towels. Add the remaining oil and the onion, garlic and pepper; cook together over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, about 10 minutes. Add tomatoes and, if you are using them, capers. Cook, stirring occasionally, until tomatoes break up, 5 to 10 minutes; adjust heat so mixture bubbles steadily but not violently.
• Return fish to pan skin side up, and cook just until fish is tender. Garnish, and serve fish with sauce.
