White Fish Baked in a Tomato Sauce

Soon we will all be stuffed with turkey. I recommend this dish for those wanting to make a fish supper in the lead up to Christmas. I used cod but you can use any other kind of white fish.

Ingedients:

fresh white cod

lemon

4 tomatoes

1 tbspn tomato puree

fresh basil leaves

ground black pepper

black olives

capers

Preheat the oven to gas mark 5 / 190 degrees celsius
Place the cod into an oven dish with a few slices of lemon for around 20 – 25 mins
In the meantime add the tomatoes to a bowl of boiling water. Leave for a couple of mins and then scoop out of the bowl. The skins will easily peel off
Heat some olive oil in a small sauce pan
Chop the tomatoes and place into the pan. Add the tomato puree, olives, capers and black pepper and leave to simmer gently until the fish is cooked
Once the fish is done plate it up and pour over the tomato sauce
Garnish with fresh basil

Serve with potatoes or a salad on the side.
