Method

Your notes

1

Gather your ingredients and preheat your oven to 200°C or 180°C fan.

2

To a large baking tray, add the tomatoes, aubergine chunks, olive oil, black pepper, coriander, turmeric, mustard seeds, curry leaves and chilli flakes with salt. Stir through the ingredients and bake for 30 minutes, stirring halfway through.

3

Meanwhile, grind the nuts in a pestle and mortar or roughly blitz them in a blender with cumin seeds, salt and pepper.

4

Coat the thawed fish in the crumb and set aside.

5

At 30 minutes of cooking, the tomatoes will have reduced and the aubergine nicely coloured. Add the chickpeas and cook for another 5 minutes.

6

Remove the tray, add the fish chunks to, drizzle with olive oil and bake for another 10 minutes until the crumb is golden and the fish is cooked through.

7

Scatter with mint and eat the fish for dinner with the vegetables. Use the chickpea, tomato and aubergine medley as leftovers. this will keep in an airtight container for 3 days or freeze nicely too
