Method
- Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Heat the oil in a deep, ovenproof frying pan, tip in the 7-spice and sizzle for a moment. Add the ginger and chilli, give it a stir, then add the chickpeas, stirring to coat them with the spices. Pour in the tomatoes, season to taste and bring to the boil.
- Season the fish and place on top of the chickpea mix, skin side down. Splash some of the sauce over the fish, then roast for 12 mins, or until the fish flakes when gently pressed. Scatter over the coriander and serve.

I have cooked this before a long time ago and thought that the ginger was way too over-powering. I think that was because i found it hard to grate it fine enough and it was a bit too fibreous (spelling??) for my liking. Im going to try this recipe again tomorrow as I now have a super-duper contraption for getting ginger grated perfectly without all the fibres. Cant wait!
