Cooking steps

Get Prepped
1
  • Pour the couscous and stock into a bowl. Stir in 200ml boiling water (4P: 500ml | 6P: 600ml).
  • Cover with a plate or cling film. Leave aside for 10 mins or until ready to serve.
  • Peel and grate the garlic (or use a garlic press).
  • Halve, peel and chop the onion into small pieces.
  • Trim the root and the dark green leafy part from the leek. Halve lengthways, then thinly slice widthways. Trim and thinly slice the scallion.

TIP: If you’re in a hurry you can boil the water in your kettle.

Fry the Fish
2
  • Place a pan over medium-high heat with a drizzle of oil.
  • Pat the basa dry with kitchen paper and season with salt and pepper.
  • Once hot, lay the fillets in the pan, sprinkle over half the Italian herbs and cook for 4-5 mins.
  • Turn over and cook on the other side, further 4-5 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash your hands and equipment after handling raw fish. The fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.
