friederike from Berlin,

I groaned when I asked DH if he had any idea what to eat this week, and in return he presented me with a video. A video! How useful is that when you're standing in the kitchen, pans sizzling on the stove, toddler pulling at your leg, cat couched on the floor right in front of the worktop, and all you can think of is "err, where was I again?". So I watched the video beforehand and took notes (it's short, luckily!).

And the result was really good! I omitted the chilli and all salt except for the salt in the pasta water, and used one filet of bass instead of the grey mullet - one filet was just about enough for the two (two and a half) of us. I considered using cod, but that probably wouldn't have worked that well, too flaky - my fishmonger also recommended tub gurnard (rode poon).

It's quite similar to this Cod with Tomato Confit dish, though a bit better, and also way quicker - you can probably whip this up in 15-20 min total time!

PS: There's actually a transcription available of the video at http://www.allreadable.com/e059E6Di - though you'll miss his wonderful accent (passoley!) and some of the helpful subtitled hints.
