Method
- Line a baking tray with foil. Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Place the basa fillets onto the lined baking tray and top with half of the spring onions and a little of the chopped coriander. Cook in the oven for 10 mins until cooked through and starting to turn golden.
- Meanwhile, bring a pan of water to the boil and cook the pasta for 7-9 mins until cooked through, adding the sweetcorn for the last 4 mins. Drain.
- Heat the leftover chowder in a pan, season and add the cooked pasta, sweetcorn, tomatoes and most of the remaining coriander. Gently stir to coat, then divide among plates. Flake over the basa fillets, then scatter over the remaining spring onions and coriander.
