Method
- Preheat the oven to gas 6, 200°C, fan 180°C. Peel and chop the root vegetable medley contents, reserving half the swede. Heat the olive oil in a sauté pan and cook the vegetables for 10 minutes. Add the spices and 3 tsp preserved lemon paste, and cook for 2 mins.
- Add the chopped tomatoes, stock and olives and simmer for 15mins. Pour into an ovenproof dish or tagine.
- In a food processor, whizz the parsley, chilli, extra virgin olive oil and 1 tsp lemon paste. Coat the fish in the herb paste, nestle in the sauce and bake for 10-15mins, until cooked through. Serve with the couscous.
- Tip: Soften the reserved ½ swede in stock with carrot and celery, then whizz with thyme and garlic for a tasty, warming soup.
