How to make it

  1. Make the sauce vierge 1 hour before serving. Combine all the ingredients together, except the fresh herbs, mix well & put to one side. Add the fresh herbs 15 minutes before serving.
  2. Preheat the oven to 200°C/180°C Fan/Gas Mark 6.
  3. Place the peppers, onions, courgettes & rosemary onto a baking tray. Season well, drizzle with olive oil & bake in the oven for 8-10 minutes.
  4. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a frying pan over a medium heat & pan fry the cod for 8-10 minutes turning once.
  5. The sauce Vierge can be served warm or cold – if serving warm, heat gently just prior to serving.
  6. Divide the roasted vegetables between two plates & place the cod fillets on top. Spoon the sauce over the top and serve.
  7. Serve with a dressed watercress salad.
  8. Enjoy with a chilled glass of lightly oaked Chardonnay Wine.
