Ingredients
Haddock In Tomato Basil Sauce
1 tbsp olive oil
1 onion, thinly sliced
1 small aubergine or eggplant, roughly chopped
½ tsp ground paprika
2 garlic cloves, crushed
2 cups fresh tomatoes chopped or (400 gr) can of tomatoes
1 tsp light or dark muscovado sugar or brown sugar
8 large basil leaves, plus a few for garnish
1 kilo fresh, white fish fillet per person (about 250 gm each)
½ tsp sea salt
Add ½ tsp of chilli powder for a little extra kick.
Instructions
Easy Method
Heat the olive oil in a non-stick frying pan and stir fry the onion and aubergine for about 4 minutes, until they start to turn golden.
Then cover with a lid and let them steam for 6 minutes, to help soften them.
Stir in the paprika, garlic, tomatoes and sugar, and the salt, and cook, with the lid on, for another 8-10 minutes, stirring as necessary until the onion and the aubergine are tender.
Sprinkle the basil leaves over the sauce.
Add ½ tsp of chili powder for a little extra kick.
Place the fish in the sauce and cover the pan and cook for 6-8 minutes until the fish flakes easily when tested with a knife.
Tear the rest of the basil leaves over the pan of fish, and serve.
You can serve with a salad, crusty bread, asparagusor whatever takes your fancy.
