Easy fish tagine

Ingredients

  1. 4 x 150g sustainably sourced skinless cod fillets
  2. 500g waxy new potatoes
  3. 4 garlic cloves, chopped
  4. 3 tbsp olive oil
  5. 2 green peppers, sliced
  6. 1 yellow pepper, sliced
  7. 5 tomatoes, roughly chopped
  8. 100ml vegetable stock
  9. 100g pitted green olives
  10. Lemon wedges and fresh coriander, to garnish

For the marinade

  1. 2 tsp ground cumin
  2. 1 tsp ground coriander
  3. 4 tbsp lemon juice
  4. 2 large garlic cloves
  5. 1 small bunch fresh coriander
  6. 1 tsp salt

Method

  1. 1. Whizz the marinade ingredients in a mini food processor or grind in a mortar and pestle until smooth. Rub half over the cod, cover and chill for between 20 minutes and an hour.
  2. 2. Meanwhile, boil the potatoes in a pan of salted water until tender, drain, then cut in half lengthways.
  3. 3. In a shallow casserole over a low heat, fry the garlic in the oil for 1-2 minutes. Add the peppers and cook for 5 minutes, then add the tomatoes and cook for a further 2 minutes. Stir in the remaining marinade and the vegetable stock. Season well.
  4. 4. Place the potatoes in a big non-stick frying pan with a lid. Top with half the tomato mixture, then with the fish, then add the remaining tomato mixture. Scatter over the olives, cover and cook over a medium-high heat for 10-12 minutes until the fish is just cooked through. Garnish with lemon wedges and coriander to serve.
