Cooking Steps

1

Preheat the oven to 240°C/220°C fan/gas mark 9.
Halve the potatoes lengthways, quartering any larger pieces, and pop them onto a lined baking tray. Drizzle with oil, half the oregano and season with salt and pepper. Rub the oil over the potatoes then lay them cut-side down on the baking tray. Roast on the top shelf of the oven until fork tender, 25-35 mins.

2

Halve and peel the onion, then cut each half into 3 wedges.

Zest and quarter the lemon. 

Meanwhile, halve the pepper and discard the core and seeds. Chop into 2cm chunks.

After 15 mins of potato cooking time, pop the pepper and onion with the potatoes.  Drizzle with oil and season with salt and pepper. Spread out in a single layer. 

Once roasted, toss the vegetables with the pesto.

3

In a bowl mix breadcrumbs, lemon zest, remaining oregano, salt, pepper and a good drizzle of oil. Pat the basa with kitchen paper and place on another lined baking tray. Season with salt and pepper. Spread a bit of aioli onto the fish and press the crumb firmly. Bake in the middle shelf until the crumb is golden and fish is cooked through, 10-15 mins. IMPORTANT: Wash hands and equipment after handling raw fish. Fish is cooked when opaque in the middle.

4

Divide the pesto vegetables and lemon and oregano crumbed basa between plates. Drizzle the remaining aioli over the fish. Serve the lemon quarters on the side.
