Provencal-style fish

2 white fish fillets (snapper, cod, barramundi, or sea bass)

  • ghee/or olive oil

  • 2 garlic cloves, thinly sliced

  • 2 shallot, finely chopped

  • 1 sprig rosemary

  • 1/2 cup organic tomato passata

  • Maldon sea salt & black pepper, to taste

  • boiled potatoes, cut into halves

  • Fresh basil or parsley, for garnish

  • olive oil, for finishing

  • Sheep’s milk Parmesan or dairy-free feta, for crumbling (optional)

  • lemon, for squeezing on top

Instructions

  1. Pan-Sear the Fish
    Pat the fish fillets dry and season with Maldon sea salt and black pepper.
    Heat ghee and olive oil in a pan over medium-high heat.
    Place the fillets skin-side down and cook for 3-4 minutes, until golden.
    Flip and cook for another 2 minutes, then transfer to a plate.

  2. Prepare the Sauce
    In the same pan, lower the heat and add ghee, garlic, shallots, and rosemary.
    Sauté until fragrant (about 1-2 minutes).
    Pour in the passata, stir well, and let simmer for 3-5 minutes until slightly thickened.

  3. Assemble & Serve
    Return the fish fillets to the pan, spoon some sauce over them, and let cook for 1 more minute.
    Plate with boiled potatoes on the side.
    Drizzle with extra virgin olive oil, sprinkle with basil or parsley, and crumble sheep’s milk Parmesan or dairy-free feta on top.
    Finish with a squeeze of lemon and serve immediately.
