Baked Fish

I start planning what to cook over the weekend on Thursday. Make a list of ingredients needed and check the availability. On the way back from work, on Friday, I buy the items that are not at home. Weekend lunch is a very important ritual at our home. Weekends are the only time, we get to eat together, so very special for me. Also, as I am into a full time job, I hardly get time to cook over the weekdays.

So while deciding what to cook for lunch, I also try to ensure that the dish is liked by daughter, husband and myself. Non veg is an easy choice that fits the bill. In the summers, due to heat , curries seem to be heavy, also, they take a lot of time for me to be in the kitchen. Keeping in mind weather, likings and nutrition I decided to do Baked Fish this weekend.

Instructions

1. Wash and cut potatoes into halves. Soak it in water while you clean other vegetables
2. Wash and clean the mushrooms. Wipe each mushroom with a kitchen towel. If the mushrooms are big cut them into halves
3. Cut onion into rings and soak in water for 5 minutes. Drain the water and take out onion rings
4. In a pan take a spoon of olive oil and pan fry the potatoes. When potatoes are cooked add a spoon of oregano and add salt. Keep the potatoes aside. Alternatively, especially if you want to cut down on calries, you can fry the potatoes in an airfryer.
5. In the same pan, heat one teaspoon of oil, and stir fry mushroom. When mushrooms are cooked add salt and oregano. Keep the mushrooms aside.
6. Once again heat a teaspoon of oil and add garlic. When garlic is light pink add spinach and cook.

8. Place spinach as the first layer, then potatoes and then mushrooms

   
9. Cover this with strips of basa, season with salt and oregano

11. Put the onion rings , bell peppers, cheese , shredded sun dried tomatoes and cheese
12. Bake for 20 minutes.
13. This would go wonderfully with Garden Fresh Salad.

Recipe Notes

• Notes : Since we are layering the vegetables and fish, add salt seperately for each layer. Spinach does not need salt.
