a fennel, finely diced
4 cod fillets, each 110 g (4 oz),
skinned and boned
2 large tomatoes, seeded,
skinned and diced
4 tbsp black olives
3 tbsp butter
1 tbsp olive oil
Focaccia bread, cut into 4 slices
Method:
1. In a solid container, prepare the marinade by
combining the olive oil, lime juice and zest,
garlic, coriander and fennel. Add the fish
and coat with the marinade, cover and
refrigerate for 1 hour.

marinade, and place in a perforated
container. Steam for 4 minutes at 100°C.
3. Meanwhile, melt the butter in a frying pan.
Fry the focaccia bread for 2 minutes on each
side, taking care not to burn the butter.
Drain on some kitchen paper towel.
4. Place the reserved marinade into a saucepan,
and heat through until warm.
5. To serve, place the cod on top of the focaccia
bread, scatter the olives and tomatoes over
them, and drizzle a little marinade over each
one.
Tip
If you cannot get focaccia bread, use
good quality, crusty white bread
instead.
