Introduction

Provençale sauce is a really versatile and fragrant sauce that can be used to liven up the most basic of meals from pasta, jacket potatoes, chicken or fish, as here. If you feel you need something more filling, add some wholegrain rice or pasta or a serving of courgetti.

Ingredients

1onion, peeled and diced
1clove of garlic, peeled and crushed
olive oil
1 x 400g tincherry tomatoes
70gpitted black olives
4fish fillets, frozen or fresh
fresh basil, to finish

Method

This works best in a shallow frying pan with a lid, although a large cast-iron casserole with a lid can also be used.

Sauté the onion and garlic together in a little olive oil for 8 to 10 minutes, until soft. Add the cherry tomatoes and black olives and bring to a very gentle simmer.

Top with the fish fillets and cover with the lid. Poach for 10 to 20 minutes (depending on the size of the fish and if it is fresh or frozen. It is done when opaque all the way through and flakes easily).

Serve hot, sprinkled with torn basil leaves.
