Ingredients
- olive oil
- 1 onion , halved and finely sliced
- 2 celery stalks, sliced
- 3 garlic cloves , sliced
- 1 anchovy , rinsed (optional)
- a pinch chilli flakes
- 2 plum tomatoes , diced
- 125ml white wine
- 400ml vegetable stock
- 50g couscous
- 250g white fish fillet, from a sustainable source
- ½ lemon , zested
- a handful chopped parsley
Instructions
- To make the garlic toasts, drizzle the bread with oil, then griddle or grill until golden all over. While the toasts are still hot, rub them with garlic and set aside.
- Heat the oil in a wide, deep frying pan. Add the onion and cook over a gentle heat for 5 mins until softened. Stir through the garlic and chilli and cook a couple of mins more. Add the tomato purée and tomatoes. Turn up the heat and cook for 10-15 mins, stirring until the tomatoes are pulpy. Pour over the wine and cook for 10 mins more until most of it has boiled away.
- Add the fish stock and orange zest and heat until gently simmering. Nestle the halibut chunks into the liquid and cook for 5 mins. Add the clams and prawns and cook for 5 mins more until the fish is cooked through and the clams have opened (discard any that haven’t). Sprinkle the parsley over the stew and serve with the garlic toasts.
