Fish in a Tomato Sauce
My take on a classic Italian celebration meal - fresh fish with tomato, garlic and herbs. Perfect with ciabatta bread to soak up the juices, and a great way to use local seafood.

Method
- Warm the olive oil in a large frying pan over a low heat and gently cook the garlic and the onion. Take your time on this to make sure the onion is really soft.
- Add the pepper and cook for 5 mins to soften
- Turn up the heat and add the wine - give it a buble for 2 mins then turn the heat to medium.
- Add the tomatoes and fresh basil and simmer on a low heat for 10 mins.
- Add your fish and simmer for a further 10 minutes or until the fish is almost cooked.
- Put your final seafood in and your prawns - again simmer for about 5 minutes until they are all cooked. use a lid on the pan to make sure you get an even distribution of heat.
- IMPORTANT: The exact cooking time for the seafood depends on what it is - please make sure its safely cooked before you eat!
- Serve with fresh bread...
Notes
- Any fish will do - its nice to base it on white fish, but worth using some with different texture like shark/tuna along with the white fish.
- I like more olive oil than this - great with the fresh bread!
