Lightly spiced and fragrant with preserved lemons, green
olives and spices, it’s sure to impress as either a weekend or
weeknight entertaining meal.
600 grams firm fresh fish
fillets (I used monkfish)
300 grams waxy
potatoes, cooked
Chermoula
2 tablespoons olive oil
3 cloves garlic, chopped
½ cup firmly packed
coriander leaves
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon each ground
turmeric and smoked paprika
½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
zest and juice 1 lemon
1 teaspoon sea salt
To c o o k
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 onions, thinly sliced
1 teaspoon ground ginger
400-gram tin
cherry tomatoes
1 cup vegetable stock
2 roasted red
capsicums, sliced
12 large pitted green olives
4 quarters preserved lemon,
skin thinly sliced
coriander, lemon wedges,
and mint leaves, to garnish
Chermoula: Blend all the ingredients in a food processor
until smooth.
Cut the fish into large pieces and place in a shallow dish. Add
half the chermoula and turn to coat, then set aside.
To cook: Heat the oil in a large sauté pan and add the onions
and ginger with a good pinch of salt. Cover and cook for 10
minutes until soft, stirring occasionally and adding a splash of
water, if needed.
Add the remaining chermoula to the pan and cook for 5 minutes
then add the tomatoes, stock and the capsicums and bring to
the boil. Simmer uncovered for 10 minutes.
Add the olives and half of the preserved lemon and the cooked
potatoes and stir together. Place the fish on top, cover and
cook for 5–8 minutes or until the fish is just cooked through.
To serve: Top with the remaining preserved lemon, lemon
wedges and herbs. Serve with couscous, if desired. Serves 4
