Baked Fish with Mustard Sauce

I'm not a fish fan but this recipe is awesome... and super easy!

1-2 white fish fillets (we've been using Basa because it doesn't have a strong fish flavour & the price is good)
Vegetables (Broccoli, zucchini, carrot, leek and capsicum are pictured here but we've used all sorts before including potato, sweet potato, pumkin, choko, celery, onion, mushroom, etc so go with whatever you have)
2 tablespoons olive oil

Chop vegetables into small chunks and put in baking dish (I use a large glass Pyrex dish). Rub 1 tablespoon of olive oil all over the vegetables with your hands. Lay fish fillets on top of vegetables and brush lightly with remaining oil. Bake 25-30 minutes at 200C.

2 tablespoons Dijon mustard (or any other type of mustard you have)
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons lemon juice
1/2 cup fresh parsley chopped or 1 tablespoon dried parsley
1-2 tablespoons olive oil

Whisk together and drizzle over fish when serving.

I did mean to get a finished photo with the sauce and everything but it got eaten before I remembered again! We do a double batch of this to feed the 6 of us.

  1. Ah, fish. The one thing I hate cooking and that is why we only ever eat tinned tuna! This does seem easy and if Basa isn't too strong tasting (and smelling?) i think i'll give this a go. Do you use frozen or fresh fish?

  2. If the fish is frozen I just let it defrost during the day either on the bench or in the fridge, depending on the time of year.
    Basa still smells like fish, but it doesn't STINK like fish :)
