Sea Bream Fillet
Shopping list
- 200g potatoes
- 30g black olives
- 1 tbsp honey
- 2 sea bream fillets
- 2 large tomatoes
- A handful of basil
- 1 tbsp red wine vinegar
- Spicentice Fish Seasoning and Rub
Preparing the Potatoes
Add water and a pinch of salt to a large saucepan. Cut the potatoes in half - no need to peel them - and add to the boiling water. Cook until soft, which takes about 15 minutes. Use a fork or a knife to check the tenderness. Mash the potatoes and set aside.
Cooking
- Chop the vine tomatoes, and roughly chop the olives and basil. Put the honey and red wine vinegar in a bowl and whisk it with a fork.
- Add the black pepper and salt, and mix together before setting aside.
- Rub the Spicentice Fish seasoning onto the fish. Get a frying pan and put it on a medium heat. Carefully lay the fish with the skin-side down and cook for 3 minutes. Press the fish gently for the first 30 seconds to avoid it from curling. However, make sure to avoid moving it too much, otherwise the skin won’t be crispy.
- Spoon some of the mashed potatoes onto a plate, and add the fish on the side. Pour over the olives, basil and tomatoes before serving.
Tip: For a healthier option, you could bake the sea bream, or grill it.
