Basa Recipe
This basa recipe is simple to prepare and baked in the oven.
It uses an easy tomato sauce topped with breadcrumbs. The sauce means that you can have plain boiled veg with it and have none of the problems of 'what sauce to serve with fish'!
It's suitable for any white fish (or dare I say it, chicken breasts) if you can't get basa.
Basa with Tomato Sauce
4 basa fillets - skinned and boned
2 slices bread - whizzed to crumbs
1 tspn dried dill or tablespoon fresh chopped dill
1 can chopped plum tomatoes
2 tspns tomato puree
1 tspn garlic salt (optional)
chopped parsley to serve
Heat the oven to 190C, Gas Mark 5.
Grease a roasting tin which will fit all fillets in one layer.
Mix the breadcrumbs with the dill.
Mix the tomatoes with the garlic salt and tomato puree.
Put the basa fish in the tin and top first with the tomato mixture, then sprinkle over the herbed breadcrumbs.
Bake for around 15 minutes until the fish is firm to the touch.
Transfer to individual plates, sprinkle parsley over and serve with some plain new potatoes, green beans and/or broccoli or veg of your choice.
A very simple meal for mid week or a special occasion.
Once again, if you can't get basa, then this recipe would be suitable for most white fish - cod, haddock, whiting, pollack - halibut or turbot as well, but they are a bit more expensive.
