Fish With Tomato Blanket

A refreshing dish that is surprisingly light.



600g fish fillets, fresh or frozen (cod, haddock, pollock)
2tbl butter
1tsp salt
1/2 pinch white pepper
2tbl Dijon mustard
2tbl dill, finely chopped
2 tomatoes
1/4 leek
2tbl fine breadcrumbs



Set the oven to 225ºC

Use half the butter to grease an oven safe dish.

Cut the fish, half thawed, into 2cm thick pieces and place in the dish. (if fresh, fillets are usually thin enough so they shouldn't need to be sliced)

Salt and pepper the fillets then spread the mustard over them.

Sprinkle over the dill.

Slice the tomatoes and chop the leek and spread over the fish.

Place the rest of the butter in small pieces evenly over it and then sprinkle over the breadcrumbs.

Put the dish in the middle of the oven for 15-20min if the fish was fresh or about 30min if it was frozen.

Test the fish with a fork to see of it's done,it should be white and nontransparent.

Serve with pressed or mashed potatoes or rice.



Enjoy!
