Pokyny

Preheat oven to 220°C/390°F (200°C fan-forced).

Roast potatoes: In a large mixing bowl, toss the potatoes with the oil, salt and pepper. Spread on a baking tray with a rim at least 2cm/0.8" high (or 23x33cm / 9x13" pan). Roast for 20 minutes.

Puttanesca sauce: Meanwhile, mix all the sauce ingredients together (use the potato bowl, no need to clean). Add to the tray, toss with the potatoes, return to the oven for 10 minutes.

Season fish: Pat the fish dry with paper towels. Sprinkle each side with the salt and pepper.

Bake fish: Place fish on top of puttanesca sauce. Drizzle all over with the 1 1/2 tablespoons of oil. Bake 15 minutes or until fish is just cooked through (it should flake easily).

Serve: Remove from the oven. Drizzle with a bit more olive oil, scatter with basil and reserved fennel fronds. Serve with warm, crusty bread!

Poznámky

1. Potato – Cut into pieces no thicker than 1.75cm/ 2/3″, else they may not cook through enough. You can also use regular potatoes, peeled or unpeeled scrubbed clean, cut into small cubes.

2. Cut fennel – Cut off the stalks and fronds (save the dill-like fine fronds for garnish). Slice a thin piece off the base if it’s browned. Slice the fennel bulb in half vertically, then cut each half into 0.5cm / 0.2″ thin half-moon shapes.

3. Anchovies – Secret ingredient! I know anchovies are divisive. But they really do add savouriness. Think of it as the better salt! 3 anchovies = faintly taste, 1 anchovy = can’t taste. But, if you’re very anti anchovies, substitute with 1 teaspoon fish sauce or 1/4 tsp heaped extra cooking/kosher salt.

4. Fish fillets

Suitable for this recipe – any firm white fish fillets that are ~2.5cm/1″ thick including: cod (any), emperor (grouper), gummy shark, hake, halibut, jewfish (mulloway), ling, monkfish, ocean trout, pollock (aka coley), salmon, snapper, stripe bass, tilapia – the thick part.

Small thin fish fillets (bream, dory) and long narrow fish (cod) – cooks faster, see Ingredients section in post for recipe adjustment.
