    Method

    1. Firstly, prepare your tapenade. Finely chop the olives, tomatoes, garlic and anchovies. Squeeze in the lemon and mix well. (Add the basil just before serving.) Set aside until needed.
    2. Bring a large pan of water to the boil and cook the potatoes for 10-12 minutes or until tender. While they’re cooking, sprinkle the chilli over the broccoli, then steam until soft but with a little bite.
    3. Make 3 or 4 slashes through the bream’s skin. Season, then fry, skin-side down, on a medium heat for 4 minutes. Turn over and fry for a further 2 minutes. Add the basil to the tapenade. Serve the fish with a spoonful or so of tapenade, alongside the broccoli and new potatoes.
          • Sea bream may only be available in limited stores.
