- Handful coriander, chopped
- 1 lime, cut into wedges, to serve
- For the Salsa
- 1 onion, sliced
- Juice of 2 limes
- 1 tsp salt
- 1 habanero chilli, finely chopped
Recipe
- Heat the olive oil in a large pan and fry the onion and pepper until they start to soften.
- Add the garlic and tomatoes and fry for another 2 minutes, then season with salt and pepper before adding a litre of water.
- Put a lid on the pan and cook for 20 minutes.
- Add the fish fillets and coriander and cook for a further 5 minutes while you make the salsa.
