Fish Stew for Two!

This classic yet simple one pot could not be easier. Using staple store cupboard ingredients & frozen fish you can glam it up with a glass of wine or snuggle on down with a blanket & a chunk of crusty bread. Be confident & make the dish your own, using whatever fish you enjoy.

Chop onion into 1cm squares, fry in a little oil.

Initially on a high heat for that immediate sizzle then on a low heat to soften & release those gorgeous sweet flavours.

Whilst your onions are frying, chop the garlic & finely slice the fennel & celery. Add these to the pan to soften. Once the ingredients are soft, add the cubes of chorizo. Cook until the chorizo has released all its gorgeous sweet, smokey & spicy flavours.

Add the tinned tomatoes, stock cube & half a tin of water. Cover & simmer on a low heat for 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

Using a potato peeler, peal strips of zest from the lemon & add to the pan with the olives. Add as much or as little as you like depending on your taste. Leave to simmer for a further 10 minutes.

If using any chunks of fish add them to you pan & cook for 3 minutes before adding your other fish & cooking for a further 5 minutes.

Sardines will take about 5 minutes each side in the sauce. Turn off the heat, stir in the spinach, parsley & season with salt & pepper to taste.

Enjoy simply as it is in a bowl or serve with a herby cous cous, crusty bread or extra greens!
