Method

  1. Heat the oil in a large frying pan or wok. Dry the potatoes in kitchen paper and tip into the hot fat. Cook them covered over a medium to high heat for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the potatoes are golden. Add the onion and garlic and cook for 3-4 minutes more on a fairly high heat until the onion is nicely browned.
  2. Stir in the tomatoes, the tomato purée, thyme and soy sauce, and let it bubble away for a couple of minutes to make a sauce. Stir in the beans and salt and pepper, then sit the fish on top, tucking it into the sauce. Don't stir or the fish will break up. Cover and simmer for 4 minutes, just until the fish is cooked. Serve sprinkled with parsley.

'I was surprised by adding cannellini beans - they tasted really good and complemented the dish.'

    I have been making this recipe ever since it first appeared in Good Food around 2002 - it is easy, healthy and a firm favourite

    This was the only failure I've ever had with Good Food recipes. I had to give it a lot more time before the fish and potatoes were cooked. Taste was good

    This has been a standby in our house since publication years ago. Simple and satisfying - the only problem is the potato cooking time which is not long enough, but the rest is spot on. It also makes a little bit of fish go a long way which is important on our budget!

    Just made this and it turned out beautifully. I took on board the criticism about potato cooking times and cubed my potatoes smaller than was recommended. About the size of little patatas bravas dice. They turned out perfectly crisp and golden in no time at all. This also gave me the idea of adding a little chopped Chorizo to continue with the Spanish theme. Worked brilliantly. Will definitely make again.
