I bought a basa fillet for my lunch on Friday and I was inspired to cook it in the most simple way possible. My herbs in the garden are still at their verdant best and the tomatoes in the greenhouse still managing to produce the occasional (but delicious and sweet) fruit.
Basa (river cobbler or panga) with tomato dressing - serves 1
Ingredients
1 Basa (river cobbler or panga) fillet
1 small tomato
A small sprig of rosemary
A sprig of parsley
1 tsp olive oil
1/2 clove garlic
Coarse sea salt to serve
Method
Preheat the oven to 180oC, 350F, Gas Mark 5. Put the fish fillet in an oven proof baking dish. Chop the tomato as finely as you can and put on the fish with the chopped herbs, garlic and oil.
Bake for approx 10 minutes, or until cooked through (this will depend on the thickness of your fish.) Serve, sprinkled with a little sea salt and with vegetables or a salad.
I've linked this up to recipe of the week.
So many of us find ourselves eating alone or as a couple and, as a result, so many of us reach for convenience solutions. What if we cooked for ourselves like we were cooking for someone we loved? This is what this site is all about. Some of the food is healthy, some isn't, all of it is made with love.
This looks like an amazing dinner! Thank you for sharing on #MMWBH

Do, it's cooked with it but it is so quick to cook it's like a dressing and that was the best way to describe it.
DeleteThis looks so yummy! Do you know I have been really {REALLY!} wanting to try different fishes for my tea with mash and veg {I'm making myself hungry!} but I never get round to it. But this looks like one I just must try! Thanks so much for linking up! #MMWBH
